Title: Copying AFP Spooled Files to a PF

About the only way to get AFP data from an AFPDS spool file is via System API’s.  And recreating the spool file on the other end is non-trivial.  I like the idea suggested by somebody to set up profiles based on printer at the other end.

Subject: Copying AFP Spooled Files to a PF

 

Does anyone know how to copy a SPLF type *AFPDS to a physical file without losing any of the AFP attributes?  I've seen many questions about this in the archives, but can't seem to find an answer (an answer I like, anyway :))

I have been using SNDTCPSPLF, but we are having problems at the remote site directing where each SPLF should go.  My thought was to copy the splf's to a PF, and then FTP the file.  That way we can put it wherever we like.  (i.e. /user/spool/annuity/etc...).  This works with regular splf's, but not AFP splf's.

Any suggestions?!?!  I'm stuck.
