Table Of Contents
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 the Read in binary mode option. 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 char-
acter (\) 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 want to use a
backslash character (\) as a delimiter, you must precede it with another backslash char-
acter (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
Set tab as field delimiter: Select to define a tab as the character that separates the fields
of each record in the input data. Clear to use the Delimiter box to define that character.
l
Channel skip.
l
Skip page: Enter the channel skip code that, in your data, signals the start of a new data
page. In standard channel skip emulation, a 1 (one) signals the start of a new data page. If
