Title: inserting ascii control codes in source files.
Post by: bobbyculpepper on October 07, 2013, 06:21:29 AM
I would like to insert form feed characters into my source files so when I print out the modules I can start functions on new pages.   My code is heavily documented and I would also like to use color in my printouts.   I still use binders and save printouts of my code.  Does anyone know how to insert ASCII control codes into source files?

First from menu Tools -> Options -> Source -> General check Accept control characters
Then Ctrl + L
(or from numeric keyboard Alt + 012)

You can use Export 1.1 Add-In to make PDF or RTF and print it.
(Export.dll special version Export_1.1_WS.zip support FF too)
