Use the MAIL destination.

| Thanks.
Finally got our copies of the USER'S GUIDE (Part I and II).
I used "DOCUMENT/DEVICE_CONVERT fielname DOCTYPE MAIL"
and it produced a filename.TXT file (but I had to go look for
it, DOCUMENT did not tell me it produced the .TXT file)
ALSO PATTI.............could you look at my note #46.
Reply #1 ask for an example but I do not how to give.
All I know is that a file that runs perfect in GENERAL will
go off the page in other DOCTYPES.

48.3 | Also TERMINAL | STAR::ETZEL | Mike | Wed Mar 04 1987 13:02 | 5 |
| I've used the TERMINAL output device also. Unlike MAIL, TERMINAL
bolds headings and so forth using escape sequences. It also seems
to print fine on an LN03--haven't tried it on other printers.

48.4 | hardcopy terminals, too | VAXUUM::DEVRIES | Undetected errors will not be fixed | Wed Mar 04 1987 13:30 | 7 |
| The TERMINAL output will print fine on all DEC printers (I know
of) except line printers (since these don't do graphic renditions
on command). Printers whose native tongue is PostScript require
an ANSI translator, of course, but that's a standard part of the
package for DEC expanding line of PostScript printers.
(I suspect this won't print on PLOTTERS.)

48.5 | Didn't work on my printers... | COOKIE::JOHNSTON | | Fri Mar 06 1987 14:48 | 6 |
| I tried printing a .TT file on the LN01, LN03, and line printer without
success. The text is not formatted; it runs all together. Are there
certain qualifiers you must specify to print a .TT file?

| No special qualifiers are needed to print the .tt file on the LN0x
printers. (Wierd stuff will probably happen on the line pinter.)
The same file that looks correct when TYPEd on your terminal looks
jumbled when PRINTed?
|
48.7 | Yes, it's jumbled on an LN03 | COOKIE::JOHNSTON | | Fri Mar 06 1987 16:14 | 12 |
| Yes, it looks jumbled. I just tried it again. FYI, I am typing
$ LN03 filename.tt
LN03 resolves to PRINT/QUEUE=LN03_N23/PASSALL/NOFEED/NOTIFY
Also, I copied the .tt file from one cluster to another before printing
it.

48.8 | Remove /PASSALL and /NOFEED | RTOADB::CAAHANS | Hans Bachner, ADG Munich | Mon Mar 09 1987 09:26 | 7 |
| Well, it's just a guess ...
Remove the /PASSALL and /NOFEED qualifiers from your PRINT command
when printing files without the special LN03 <ESC>-stuff.
Good luck,
Hans

48.9 | May still need the NOFEED | ATLAST::BOUKNIGHT | Everything has an outline | Mon Mar 09 1987 11:31 | 5 |
| I agree with the PASSALL qualifier, remove it. However, you may
still need the NOFEED qualifier if DOCUMENT has been counting lines
for you and putting in FFs.

48.10 | the less said, the better | VAXUUM::DEVRIES | Undetected errors will not be fixed | Mon Mar 09 1987 16:08 | 5 |
| I print .TT files without either /PASSALL or /NOFEED qualifiers,
and it works fine here. Most of our queues have /FEED as a default
characteristic of the queue, if that matters to anyone.
