Is there a solution to Create an ASCII Transparent File?
I tried to get the Printed Lines in an ASCII Text File with the report form .. to file xxx ascii. Or the general only Text printer Driver.

The Problem I have is, that the Textboxes on the Report itself are interpreted in a false Size. So that a text wich was Printed like This:

EDITBOX A--------E TEXT A--------T
EDITBOX B--------E TEXT B--------T
EDITBOX C--------E TEXT C--------T
| |
This is a Text wich This is a Text formated
is formated to 3 Lines to 3 Lines wich stands to the right
of EDITBOX


After Printing this to ASCII or the Generic Text only Printer it looks like this:

EDITBOX A-----
---E
EDITBOX B-----
---E TEXT B--------T
EDITBOX C----- TEXT C--------T
---E

TEXT A--------T


I couldnt find any solution for this strange behavior. The thing I know is that interpreting the lenght of the content in EDITBOX is false. Also the Positioning
of TEXT standing next to the moreline EDITBOX is false.
Has anybody a printer Driver wich creates exactly the same printout into an ASCII transparent file. With .or. without Format codes.
I tried Postscript, but it doesnt give me the chance to select specific Areas
From one Line in a Program.
