Printing problems Vax to Unix

[Ken Langendock]

Glenn, Are you ftp'ing them in Binary mode?
 
As for the Font size, you may have to add an INITIAL HEADING to set the
font to the correct size for the printer you are trying to print on.
Vax's have defaults that work well with printers...UNIX machines don't
seem to care about anything.

Hi,
 
Here's the situation:
 
The client has just moved into a new office and (because of politics)
the vax print queues no longer exist. So Quiz reports are being written
to disc, transferred to a Unix box using SFTP, then printed from there.
It seems that this should work OK but the reports are not printing
properly. One problem is the font size. The 2nd problem is the control
characters are being interpreted as garbage. 
 
Help! I need a quick fix.
 
Any help will be much appreciated.
 
Thanks
