Thanks. I spoke to soon. The answer I found in the line feed thread.
Didn't work for this. But \c[ worked like a charm.

My UNIX system prints these print commands to printer to set font as
well as page breaks ect... I need to be able to add them to my reports
but just inserting them doesn't do the trick so I am guessing I need the
actual ASCII codes to do it.

Here is the text the would print if I redirected the report to file
rather then the printer. [120;72 G[120;43 G

Any ideas??
