RE: Internally Defined Printer File

Frank,

Unfortunately, program described printer output has no support for
presentation attributes. Overstrike is the only method I've seen to simulate
bold text. Essentially, you print the line twice, first time specifying
space after 0 and printing only the words/fields that you want enhanced,
then print the whole line again with a space after. This causes your bold
fields to have printed twice. It's not really very effective, especially if
you are outputting to a laser printer. Impact printers will support this
technique fairly well.

hth,
Eric DeLong

Subject: Internally Defined Printer File


I have an RPGILE program that has an Internally Defined Printer File.  I am
trying to highlight a field for the header portion of the report.  Does
anyone know how to do this?  I have tried using "HIGHLIGHT" next to the
field.

Thank you,

Frank Kany
