Got it.
The fopen/fgetc/fputc combination and it works fine now. In addition, it is quick!

I was using two commands. One to copy the IFS-based file to a flat file and then copy it back to a different location.
They were too slow and caused too much lag.
In the process I'm working in, the response has to be quick to capture the data necessary to meet archiving requirements.

I suppose by "read/write operation" you mean the one you wrote which
involves wrapping open() with RPG?
So now there's a third story, which is that sometimes is messes up the
PDFs and sometimes not? Nice.
What I'm REALLY interested in is the commands. You said there were
multiple CL commands, which were "way too slow". Which commands?
