Hello, This is my an extract of my ace report: OUTPUT SECTION ============== output left margin 0 <<<---------I set the page margin in order to have right margin 132 a landscape format of the produced report top margin 0 bottom margin 0 page length 52 report to "cash.txt" FORMAT SECTION ============== format page header print ascii(12) <<<------I print ^L in order to break the page print column 53, "==========================" print column 53, "Subscriber Business System" print column 53, "==========================" print print print column 53, " CASH PAYMENT REPORT" print print before group of hea_ordid print column 20, hea_ordid; after group of hea_ordid print sbs_sub_locid, 1 space, sbs_mas_uua, 1 space, group total of pac_nett_tot using "$$$,$$$,$$$,$$$.$$", 2 space, update_hea, 2 space, sub_cname clipped, ",", 1 space, sub_csurname clipped on last row print print print column 20, "Total revenue from cash payment: ", 8 space, total of pac_nett_tot using "$$$,$$$,$$$,$$$.$$" page trailer print print print "Date:", today using "dd/mm/yyyy"; print column 64, pageno using "Page ###"; print column 112, "Time:", time end QUESTION: In order to have a "PAGE BREAK", in the ACE page header I "print ascii(12)" that gives me a ^L character that breaks my report. I would like to know if there is a similar "control character" that sets the printer in order to print LANDSCAPE my report? I'm working on HP-UX 9.04 and the printers are HP LaserJet 4 series.
