Re: Downloading a spool file?

Is there an easy way (given only terminal and FTP access to the system) to download the contents of a spool file in a form that desktop boxes can deal with? Something that can then be converted into, say, a spreadsheet?

CPYSPLF FILE(QSYSPRT)
TOFILE(*TOSTMF)
JOB(NUMBER/USER/JOB)
SPLNBR(1)
TOSTMF('/home/buck/splf.pdf')
WSCST(*PDF)

You can also go plain text if you leave off the WSCST parameter and then the PC user can import into a spreadsheet delimiting by column. I leave dealing with 2k page headings as an exercise for the regex reader :-)
