SORRY, something ATE the carriage returns in the previous code.  I'm sending it again DOUBLE SPACED.



In the following sample QUIZ, you will get you what you are looking for.



The trick is, you need to define the SYMBOL SET that has your character on the printer.  In this case, I chose PCL Windows 3.1 Latin 1 - "esc(19U"



The following symbol sets don't have it:



"esc(10U"  PCL PC-8, Code Page 437





"esc(8U)"  PCL Roman-8





"esc(9U)"  PCL Windows 3.0 Latin 1



This assumes of course, your printer has these PCL symbol sets.  I used an old HP LaserJet 4050TN.



For the ACCESS statement, just pick any file you have defined in your dictionary.



ACCESS <anyfile>



;----- Next three defines the escape character



DEF num27 int*2 = 27



DEF num27c char*2 = characters(num27)



DEF escape char*1 = num27c[2:1]



;----- ESCAPE plus (19U chooses PCL Windows 3.1 Latin 1



DEFINE STRING1 CHAR*5 = ESCAPE + "(19U"



;----- ESCAPE plus the following chooses Courier font 10 pitch 12 point



DEFINE STRING2 CHAR*18 = ESCAPE + "(s0p10h12v0s0b3T"



;----- Next three defines the copyright symbol



DEF num169 int*2 = 169



DEF num169c char*2 = characters(num169)



DEF copyright char*1 = num169c[2:1]



;----- Next three defines the registerd trademark symbol



DEF num174 int*2 = 174



DEF num174c char*2 = characters(num174)



DEF registered char*1 = num174c[2:1]



;----- Next three defines the un-registerd trademark symbol



DEF num153 int*2 = 153



DEF num153c char*2 = characters(num153)



DEF unregistered char*1 = num153c[2:1]



;----- End definitions and go
