I know that what I ask can be done but I haven't found the answer yet.  We have a spoolfile that is approx. 30,000 lines. The printer jammed at 20,000 lines and we don't want to send it all over again.   We need to cut out lines 5/20,000 (1/5 contain esc. sequences to toggle macro's on our Xerox printer so they need to stay with the new spoolfile).

We have tried ESPUL which has many commands but none seem to be what we want.  We have also tried editing the OUT.HPSPOOL file but it didn't seem to work properly - record length is chopped off to 255 characters.

Thanks a bunch in advance!
