John, I used the following to copy a .pdf to the spool. I don't think there are any added CC's. When I pull the output off with an external writer I get the 1000 byte records, no CC. Are you using SDSF to look at the output? Are you seeing SDSF's idea of how the data will be processed and fake CC's. I don't have SDSF and can't check what it would show.

Hi, All, We're trying to copy a .PDF document into the JES2 spool (SYSOUT dataset) for later printing, but so far have been unable to suppress the insertion of ANSI carriage-control characters as the first byte of each record. We've tried coding DD SYSOUT=A,DCB=RECFM=FB but that didn't work as expected. We can't seem to find the correct reference manual to tell us how to accomplish this, either (would it be a JES2 manual? the JCL Reference "sort of" suggested the DCB=RECFM=FB sub-parm on the DD statement). Looking for ideas.... -jc- ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
