It isn't a Windows thing specifically, but was the norm for many moons before other OS systems were developed. If you try to send just a CR to a teletype (just saying), it will print every printed line over the top of the last. I have direct experience in doing that. :) -- LinkedIn: http://www.linkedin.com/pub/8/a4/60 Twitter: http://twitter.com/RogerTheGeek MissHunt: http://www.misshunt.com/ (Home of the Clean/Dirty Magnet) NCDevCon: http://ncdevcon.com/ 2010 Raleigh ColdFusion Conference ~| Order the Adobe Coldfusion Anthology now! http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Coldfusion-Anthology-Michael-Dinowitz/dp/1430272155/?tag=houseoffusion Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/message.cfm/messageid:334226 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/unsubscribe.cfm

RE: PDF multi-line input
Either way, it seems to be when I pull the data from the database and use CFPDFFORM and insert it back into the PDF. If I submit the PDF there are extra carriage returns in the data. Using the replace of chr(10) and chr(13) did not help either. It is like the PDF displays single carriage returns, but it submits to the update as double carriage returns. Im stumped!

RE: PDF multi-line input
AH HA! Found it. replace(FORM.Customer_Name, Chr(13) Chr(10), chr(13), ALL) Apprently chr(13) chr(10) represents a Windows newline. Looks like this works. I will keep testing.
