Universe file names

[Eugene Perry]

I was looking at Universe yesterday. Even though I had LONGNAMES
turned on, I noticed that at the os level Universe still does not
create the file with the actual name. It looks like it still has a
hold over from dos and its 8 character file name.

I am hoping that someday, Universe will correct this.

Can you paste the contents of the VOC item for CREATE.FILE

Symeon,

Here is what CREATE.FILE looks like:

0001: V
0002: create.file
0003: E
0004: VF
0005: LONGNAMES
0006: PICK.FORMAT

I created a file called INTALL.IMAGE. At the os level, the file is
INSTALL.I000.

I do not understand why UNIVERSE cannot create the file with the full
file name. I do understand that there might be some problems because
of old files and that there would need to be a process to get them to
their correct names but there could always be a software switch put in
place so that UNIVERSE did it the old way or the new way depending on
the switch.

on my Universe 10.3.7 system, long filenames works just fine:

>CREATE.FILE INSTALL.IMAGE 1,1,18 1,1,18
Creating file "INSTALL.IMAGE" as Type 18, Modulo 1, Separation 1.
Creating file "D_INSTALL.IMAGE" as Type 18, Modulo 1, Separation 1.
Added "@ID", the default record for RetrieVe, to "D_INSTALL.IMAGE".

Hello All,

I have an issue with wIntegrate regarding network local & network printing.
Any help will be grateful. If you think you can help me let me know what
exactly you need. Below is a brief overview of my issues.

We recently upgrade our Server to 2008 Std Edition from NT 4.0 Server.
It is now running on a Laptop for portability.

We previously had Manfact(wIntegrate) set to print to a HP4050 LJ
Printer and we were able to print Portrait & Landscape correctly with our
old HP Server Computer WinNT 4.0 which was attached thru Parallel Port, with
correct font & font size.

Now I'm attached by USB to the printer, don't know if this is causing
the printing issue. The issue I'm having is in Landscape mode, it still
prints in portrait even if I choose Landscape setting, unless I change the
HP4050 to landscape, but then it still does not print the correct font size.

Best Regards
KenJG

Eugene,

Does the directory where these file exist contain a file named ".Type1"?

If so, this might be your problem.

However, you can't just delete this file, it's a little tricky to convert from type 1 to type 19.

 

Good luck,

DonR

It does appear to be working now. The only thing I can think of is
that I created the fie BEFORE i turned long names on.

Thanks all.

You might get a better response if you post this as a separate, new topic.  By replying to an existing and completely unrelated topic, your question is buried in this thread with little visibility to the group.

I presume the printer is attached to the laptop via usb

 

Are you able to print to the printer from the laptop in landscape using say excel or some other application ?

 

Typically the landscape/portrait issue can be a driver problem. – if you google ‘HP4050 not printing landscape’ you get quite a few results.

Hello Symeon,

Refer Below:

I presume the printer is attached to the laptop via usb - Yes, it is attached by USB

 

Are you able to print to the printer from the laptop in landscape using say excel or some other application ? Yes, all other applications work fine in both portrait and landscape with correct fonts & size.  This issue only seems to be with printing thru Manfact/wIntegrate.

 

Typically the landscape/portrait issue can be a driver problem. – if you google ‘HP4050 not printing landscape’ you get quite a few results. I downloaded 2 types of drivers for this OS & Printer and both print out the same results thru Manfact/wIntegrate

Thank you & Best Regards

Ken

Hello Kevin,

Thank you for your reply.  I'm still new to the Google Groups, in a few words can you explain how I can post a NEW topic or guide me where I can do this.  Thank you for your help on this matter. I will look into new posting while waiting for your response.

Regards
Ken

Just go to the group's main page, where all the posted topics are listed, and at the top of the page you should see a reddish button with white text that says "New Topic".  For those using the new Google Groups format, it should look something like this:  NEW TOPIC
