SYMPTOMS
When an SCS 0x0D is sent in an LU1 data stream to force a carriage return without a line feed (to do underlines), SNA Server Print service ignores 0x0D when Bypass GDI and PDF (printer definition file) are selected. The entire print job should be treated as EBCDIC transparent data and passed directly to the printer after being converted to ASCII, except for SCS codes which are mapped to the characters to send to the printer using a PDF. The following is a sample PDF: /*   PRINTER SESSION DEFINITION FILE FOR SNA Server Printers    */ /*  */    BEGIN_MACROS LFF EQU 0A FFF EQU 0C CRR EQU 0D END_MACROS /* Parameters */   CARRIAGE_RETURN=CRR NEW_LINE=CRR LFF LINE_FEED=LFF FORM_FEED=FFF CRR /*                       End of Definition File



STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in SNA Server 3.0 and 3.0 SP1. This problem was corrected in the latest SNA Server version 3.0 U.S. Service Pack. For information on obtaining this Service Pack, query on the following word in the Microsoft Knowledge Base (without the spaces):
