Add/remove lines: Enter the number of lines to add to, or remove from, the head of the data
stream, or use the spin buttons to increment or decrement the value. Positive values add lines;
negative values remove lines. This is useful when one or more lines of input data precede the
start of the first data page. Note that you cannot add lines in either a CSV or user defined
emulation.
Lines per page: Enter the number of lines each data page contains, or use the spin buttons to
increment or decrement the value.
Pages in buffer: Enter the number of data pages you want the data page buffer to contain, or
use the spin buttons to increment or decrement the value.
Read in binary mode: Select to read the sample data file in binary mode. You select this if you
intend to run the document on a printer that is set to binary mode. In binary mode, the printer
reads the end of line characters (CR, LF, and CRLF) as they appear in the data stream and
does not perform any substitution. A printer that does not support binary mode or is not running
in binary mode replaces any CR, LF, or CRLF that appears at the end of a line of data with a
LF. Note, however, that it replaces a line feed followed by a carriage return (LFCR) with two
LFs. Binary mode is the recommended printer mode when you use an ASCII emulation.
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.
