>If you mean ".. to file ASCII" and then a DOS print with a generic text printer then use ansitooem().

report form myreport to file myText ASCII
>hd=fopen("mytext.txt",12)
>lnSize = fseek(hd,0,2)
>=fseek(hd,0,0)
>lcText = fread(hd, lnSize)
>=fseek(hd,0,0)
>=fwrite(hd, ansitooem(lcText),lnSize)
>=fclose(hd)
