The main thing is that the check forms length is 42 at 6lpi. Using the *SCS printer file printing to the *IPDS printer the first check is ok but subsequent checks are out of alignment because they are printing as though the paper is 66 lines. It is not picking up on the forms length in the printer file (42).OVRPRTF, maybe? Adding the sheet size to the OVRPRTF for a PDF conversion helped when I was having trouble with the conversions ignoring the sheet size in the print file, and produced PDFs sized for 132-column fanfold. At any rate, I'm more than a little curious what kind of IPDS printer would actually care about the form length.
