Mea ignotus. Using Eudora Pro 4.3 I saved the message, originally, as .txt,
which is ascii, I think, but...but I had left checked in the "save as"
dialogue "include headers" and "guess paragraphs," and, now, not taking
that road, as another Robert once said, "has made all the difference."
Goodbye spaces. I don't know which one forced the spaces (I'd guess "guess"
graphs) but it's fine now. BTW where would the .pop file be listed? Can't
find a-one.

No, I don't justify, on the page or otherwise. The former makes for easy
drafts, the latter for a lot of trouble. Again, thank you, and I'm about to
tackle the modifications you suggested for HPLJ-4.PRN.
