Char 12 is the old school formfeed which has existed long before these young whipper snappers created PCL. In addition, there is the BASIC command PAGE which you could probably execute at the top of your report that runs in code -Original Message- From: randyleesmith randyleesm...@roadrunner.com To: u2-users u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org Sent: Fri, Jul 26, 2013 11:52 am Subject: [U2] How can I Insert a Page Break in a Printer Spooler?

The page might output that ^H^J or some combination like that - like @(-1) does.

Re: [U2] How can I Insert a Page Break in a Printer Spooler?
I've been coding for years and don’t think I ever used PAGE before. Or it’s more like I've never needed to, or use it for a long time and well, you know how that is. ;) I've just got such an unusual situation I've been fighting for a while and this might just be the last thing I needed.

Re: [U2] How can I Insert a Page Break in a Printer Spooler?
If you use the SETPTR command you can use STARTPAGE and EJECT as options to add a form-feed before and after a report. SETPTR ,, STARTPAGE 2, EJECT set it back to your standard when finished with the unusual situation. SETPTR ,, STARTPAGE 0, NEJECT Date: Fri, 26 Jul 2013 12:36:43 -0700 From: randyleesm...@roadrunner.com To: u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org Subject: Re: [U2] How can I Insert a Page Break in a Printer Spooler?
