Hi,

   We are scripting a file with Waterloo Script 90.1 using the I3820
parameter. When we invoke the I3820 processor we use the parameter
ORIENT(W). This is causing all of the = (EQUAL) signs in the file to take
up two spaces. This first byte is the equal sign and the second is a blank.
This does not happen when script with ORIENT(N) parameter. We are using the
serif 8 font, an IBM 3827 printer and waterloo script 90.1.  Has anyone a
clue?

Thanks,
Duane


Example:

      This is a t=e=st            (this will print as)
      This is a T= e= st          (this)
