Re: To print 110 character heading in 80 column report.

["Jim Franz" <jfranz@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Is this a laser?
I use a dds print file, compiled with type *afpds.
This is a sample from an 8x11 form, using various fonts.
In example below, printing 120 character field on 80 column form.
With afpds, the column can exceed the form width (if you use a small font).
See Printer Device Programming manual, appendix D for list of fonts.
