Hi Fred,

I don't think that either of the functions were part of Foxtools, but rather the 16 bit Win API. They're not listed in a DISPLAY STATUS when the library has been set. However, that doesn't answer your question.

Try setting up the Windows Generic/Text Only printer driver with the appropriate control codes.
