>I am appending Data in a cursor from Text File using Append from abc.txt SDF. The problem is that, of around 700000 records certain records have length of 255 and 256 Characters and therefore the last one o two digits or few characters are not appended properly.

(1) yes, it is possible
You'll have to create a cursor with a memo field
Then read the file with fgets( fd, 8192) and insert each line in the cursor
(2) I think you're going the wrong way about this
Postscript is a stack based interpreted language
The end of a line is not necessarily the end of an instruction sequence
eg
0 0 moveto
can also be written as
0
0
moveto
You are reading a stream of tokens (elements)
If you strip the comment lines - it is as if the input were one continuous line
