Message: [QUOTE="Tim Chase, post: 4010223"] It's not a matter of you controlling the GDI stuff. Unless you're writing directly to the printer device, printing on Windows is done (whether by Notepad, gvim, Word, Excel, whatever) into a graphical representation which is then shipped off to the printer. So if you're printing from Notepad, it's going to print what you see (the little square), because Notepad renders to this graphical representation to print. If you send the file *directly* to the printer device (bypassing the Win32 printing layer), it will send the ^L directly and should eject a new page on most printers. -tkc [/QUOTE]
