I think I was unclear: the code came to me with quotes, and I was working
with quotes.
I tried taking them *off* and got a syntax error, likely because my fields
don't go to 255. :-)
It sounds awfully like, though, I have a switch bad on pcl2pdf -- telling it
to expect input in a codepage where 255 is a SINGLE_DAGGER, not NBSP or
another NO-GLYPH...
This has never worked on this install, nor, I think, on this version of pcl6.
I believe we bought this from Steve Asman some years back, so...
Cheers,
