RE: PRTF problem...fields don't go where I want 'em

Just a thought.. 

Make sure you only have one printer file with that name in your library
list.

Make sure you specified the correct printer file name in your F-Specs.

Make sure you are specifying the starting posistion, not the ending
postition (o-specs use ending position) in your DDS.

Make sure to recompile the DDS.
