Hi John,
Have you tried "PADDING=0,-1" yet? The change is simply that it now by default uses the black color customization set by the COLORS directive instead of straight black that bypasses the COLORS directive. To again bypass the COLORS directive, simply set -1 as the second parameter of the PADDING directive. Hope this helps.

Wengier,
I don't use the padding command (never have). Has the padding default has changed with the new version(?)

Hi John,
The border color of both windowed and full-screen vDosPlus is controlled by the second parameter of the recent PADDING directive. By default it is 0 or black unless you have customized the color 0 using the COLORS directive. To bypass the effect of the COLORS directive and use straight black as the border color, use -1 instead of 0 as the border color, e.g. PADDING=10,-1. Hope this helps.

Wengier,
Thanks for this feature -- seems to be working well -- but there's another change in this version (June 2016 branch): the black screen borders have disappeared in full screen mode. At least for this user, the change is unwelcome, because the background color, though off-white, is too bright when it fill the entire screen. Or do I need to adjust a config.txt setting to bring the borders back?
Thanks.

This problem is now resolved in the latest build of vDosPlus (vDos-lfn). Now vDosPlus will first try to delete the PDF file that already exists, and if the file cannot be deleted then it will create a new PDF file according to the scheme: #LPT1.PDF, #LPT1_01.PDF, #LPT1_02.PDF, ..., #LPT1_99.PDF.
Please enjoy the new vDosPlus!

vDos users: Be aware that printing using a PDF it locks the port, so you
must close out the PDF reader before you can print again. Otherwise, you'll
get the error message box:
"pcl6 or gswin32c could not convert printjob to PDF"
(Did I get that right, Carl or Wengier?)
