Convert .doc file to print in DOS mode

Hello to all...

I have one problem!
I'm looking for solution to convert saved .doc file to .txt file and then print out in DOS matrix mode.

But text in Word file is in two collumns with words and numbers. Is it possible to save the shape of document too?

Any idea...

Thanks,
Erik

Hi
Can you post a sample of the document? Also, will you have MS-Word on the machine that will run your application?

Re: Convert .doc file to print in DOS mode

Hi,
Your document is in slavic (i think), so you may have issues with text printing (text may not support the special characters).
If you save the doc in RTF format, you can print it in DOC (word.save-as)
Hope it helps,
Kieron
