Dear Dwayne, The typical Lexmark Optra laser printer frequently offers support for three different printer languages (HP PCL, PostScript, and PPDS). The PPDS choice is a unique Lexmark printer language known as the Personal Printer Data Stream. The reason many people use the PPDS printer language is that it includes support for a catalog of fonts that were originally available on the IBM typewriters that were used by many corporations in years past. One of the attributes of the PPDS printer language is the wrap feature that you are describing. The HP PCL and PostScript printer languages do not work in this fashion. If data is found outside of the printable area supported by the printer, it is ignored and not wrapped when using the HP PCL or PostScript printer languages. If you are using PPDS and must stay with it, let me know which models of Lexmark printer you are working with off list and I'll see whether I can suggest some PDT adjustments that might overcome the problem in PPDS mode.
