It's the postscript escape sequence. If your running Unix, it tell's lpr or lp to interpret the file as poscript rather than raw text, or at least that's the way I heard it. Anyway you need that as the absolute first line. When you say you print both files are they concatenated or just sent one after the other? They have to be concatenated Make sure you take out the ^Z that DOS leaves at the end of files. This screws things up. I print a lot of files from MS WORD using this technique so it can be done, just hack about with it. ...LATER... -Z Raisin -- --- "May The Prezent Tenz Be With You." -The Super Amazin Cinnamon Raisin deen@romulus.rutgers.edu
