Hi Simon, >From a command line I did CALL UB92PDFF x'00033344455F' SHWSTDOUT and got a blank screen with ===> F3=Exit F4=End of File F6=Print F9=Retrieve F17=Top F18=Bottom F19=Left F20=Right F21=User Window at the bottom. While my program was running, the stdout data stream was being displayed on the green screen. Here's the prototype I use to write to stdout: d WrtStdOut pr extproc('QtmhWrStout') d WrtDta 1024a options(*varsize) const d WrtDtaLen 10i 0 const d APIerror 1024a options(*varsize) Regarding the dropping of position 1 of the output, it only happens on the display. The program sends a PDF file to the HTTP server which sends it to a web browser where it displays correctly, which would not happen if it were truncating the 1st byte of each line. PDF files drive me nuts -- I had a lower case "r" where it should've been uppercase and all the Acrobat Reader says is "There was a problem opening this document (14)". I learned that you can press ctl, then click the OK button on that message and you get another message "Expected 'dict' object". With those helpful messages it took a couple of hours to figure out what was wrong. The point being, that if it weren't right, I wouldn't see anything at all. So the dropped byte is somewhere in IBM's Session Manager. And I say that because it happens without using your program, which I still can't get to capture my output.
