Cut on FF character: Select to have the document start a new data page when it encounters a
form feed character in the data stream. If you select Cut on FF character, you have two
conditions that signal the end of a data page: the form feed character and the number of lines
set in the Lines per page box.
View Selector: Click to go to the Data Selector to set the properties of this task.
Emulation. The available emulations are:
l
Line printer. (Nothing to configure.)
l
ASCII.
l
Tab on CR: Select to have the document insert a tab after each carriage return
character it encounters. Set the number of spaces in the tab using the Number of
spaces in the tab box. This option is available only if you selected Read in binary
mode. If you cleared Read in binary mode, the printer replaces any end of line
characters (CR, LF, or CRLF) it encounters with a LF.
l
Number of spaces per tab: Enter the number of spaces you want the document to
use for a tab, or use the spin buttons to adjust the value.
l
Remove HP PCL escapes: Select to have the document remove any Hewlett
Packard Printer Control Language (HP PCL) escape sequences it encounters.
l
CSV (comma separated values).
l
Text delimiter: Enter the character that starts and ends the data in each field of the
record. If you do not set a text delimiter and the data in a field contains the character
you set as the delimiter, the document splits that data into two fields. If you want to
use a backslash character (\) as a delimiter, you must precede it with another
backslash character (thus you would enter \\). You can also specify an ASCII
character using its octal value preceded by a backslash (for example, \041 is the
exclamation mark character [!]).
l
Force one record per page: Select to force a single record per data page. If you
clear the selection, the document fills the data page completely, splitting a record
across data pages if necessary. If you want to avoid splitting a record across data
pages, yet have several records in the buffer, select Force one record per page,
and, when you stabilize your data, set Pages in buffer to the number of records you
want the buffer to hold.
l
Delimiter: Enter the character that separates the fields of each record in the input
data. If you want to use a tab as a delimiter, select Set tab as field delimiter. If you
