Excellent! You are absolutely right. I used this source file as PCL and able to generate PDF without any special/junk characters using gpcl6 from ghostpcl 9.18. But there's some small issue of getting more number of pages than source ( I tried 650 pages source file and it generated 810 pages of PDF). Few last lines of a page skipping to next page and pushing the next page further. Each page starts with a "Print Date" & "Page xxx" (in the first line). Can we use this pattern to adjust each page OR gpcl6 has any parameter that can define this? I tried few but no luck.

Could you please suggest any ideas on how to fix this?

Again, many thanks for your correct direction Smilie
