RE: Transferring Spool Files from AS400

I appreciate the information sent in on this question but..........
I haven't had any problem getting the 156 byte spool file down to my PC,
the problem is when it gets there, being able to print it without it
wrapping.   I realize when viewing this document via email, it remains in
the original report format but if you try to send it to a printer, it has
trouble condensing the print to fit on a single page as it was originally
generated.   IF you use Notepad or Wordpad to open the document, they don't
allow you to print with a condensed mode.  Changing the font or % doesn't
help the wrapping issue.   Changing to Landscape and Scaling to Fit the
paper still doesn't change the actual printing in this case.   I would be
glad to send a sample of this document to someone offline from the mail
list .     thanks

I've had better luck with this stuff when I've used CPYSPLF to a data file
and copied the data file to a folder using CPYTOPCD TRNFMT(*TEXT) or
CPYTOSTMF ENDLINFMT(*CRLF).
