A *USERASCII spool file can contain PCL, Postscript, PDF or any other
RAW binary data.

Please clarify what exactly you're trying to accomplish.

It's not clear from your post.

subject: Convert *USRASCII spool file to PDF

Hello,
I'm trying to convert a *USRASCII spool file to PDF. I used the spool
file APIs (QSPGESTP, QSPOPNSP, QSPCLOSP) to write the spool data into a
PF. I don't want to create a new spool because of security restrictions
in my work. The problem I now have is how to append control characters
of the spool file into the PF (basically I want to mimic CPYSPLF with
CTLCHAR(*PRTCTL) so that I can feed this PF to a utility that creates a
PDF. Is there a way the spool APIs give me the control characters too?

Thanks in advance,
Prakash
