I have to "convert" a bunch of display files that use the CCSID
keyword to be printer files. Foolishly I thought the same keyword

Can anyone suggest a suitable printer file alternative?


IIRC, [some of] the keywords that are composed with any of the mnemonics CHR, FNT, and FONT should enable defining the Code-Page and Character-Set for the data written to printer files.
