This Zip file contains two fll files and this text file.

RawPrint.Fll is a add on library to allow you to send a text file
including printer control characters to a print queue in raw format.

There are two files here : RawPrint3.Fll was compiled using the API
that comes with VFP3.0b, RawPrint5.Fll was compiled using the API 
that comes with VFP5.0a.

To use this routine follow the following steps:

Use SET PRINTER TO, SET PRINTER ON etc to print to a file.
Use GETPRINTER() to get the name of the printer to print to.

Use something like the following code.

SET LIBRARY TO RawPrintx.fll ADDITIVE
Success=RAWPRINT(mPrinterName, mFileName)

After it has executed Success will contain True or False
Unfortunately I have not yet put in detailed error messages.
In any case the only things that could be wrong are :
1. The printer you specified does not exist or cannot be accessed.
2. The file you specified does not exist or cannot be opened for read.

If you need to contact me for any questions/suggestions email me at

Hope you find this little tool useful.... I certainly have.
