DOCUMENT:Q165345 13-JUN-2001 [sna] TITLE :SCS Codes Ignored When Bypassing GDI PRODUCT :Microsoft SNA Server PROD/VER:WINDOWS:3.0 OPER/SYS: KEYWORDS:kbnetwork ====================================================================== ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The information in this article applies to: - Microsoft SNA Server, version 3.0 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- SYMPTOMS ======== When data for a LU1 print session contains both printer control characters and SCS codes, the SNA Server Print Service will drop the SCS codes if Bypass GDI is selected. Because the job is prerendered by the host (contains the native control codes for a specific printer) it is appropriate, in this case, to select Bypass GDI in the Printer Properties dialog box.

For instance, if EBCDIC '0x15' (SCS code for New Line) is part of the incoming data stream, the following PDF file excerpt would translate the GDI call New_Line to a Carriage Return (OD) / Line Feed (OA) combination: */*********************** */ BEGINNING OF PDF FILE */*********************** Control Code section of the PDF file: NEW_LINE = CRR LFF /* new line */ Macro Definition Section of the PDF file: LFF EQU 0A /* line feed */ CRR EQU 0D /* carriage return */ */*********************** */ END OF PDF FILE */*********************** STATUS ====== Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in SNA Server version 3.0. This problem was corrected in the latest Microsoft SNA Server 3.0 U.S. Service Pack.
