Jim, if your spooled file is perfectly well columnar designed, why not just
CPYTOIMPF as either a .csv or a .txt stream file and then download it?

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?

At over 2k pages, this report is not something any sane person would
send to a printer (in my mind's eye, I see a 1403 line printer chewing
through half a box of greenbar). And I'd probably die of old age trying
to copy and paste the whole thing out of a terminal session.
