Gregory,

No. Perhaps I should have been more clear.

For standard 132-character wide reports, I am concerned about cases where a 
programmer has done something like this:

1) writes print line that is 132 bytes of spaces in order to skip a line
2) writes a line of 132 characters where the first 5 (for example) are 
significant followed by 127 spaces

Will the spooler on the iSeries truncate these trailing extraneous spaces?
