Force a form feed in printed output
GWD Text Editor Forum: Technical Support: Force a form feed in printed output
    By Jack Moore on Friday, May 19, 2000 - 11:25 pm:
I am working with a rather large perl module. I would like to force a form feed to make the printed listing more readable. Is there an easy way to insert a form feed into the text that would be invisible to the perl interpeter later. I have tried inserting a ascii 012 after a # sign to put the form feed in a comment. This almost worked but my laser printer ejected a sheet and picked up at the same line as the previous page left off.

In the GWD Text Editor form feed (ASCII 12) character must be first character in the line, and this line should contain only form feed character. I am not sure about Perl, but most compilers treats form feed character as space.
