Try using 'gawk' instead of 'awk' if you have it available on your system and see if that fixes the problem or not. I think 'awk' has some limitation with record lengths.

host1> head -1 file1 > outfile
host1> sed '1d;$d' file1|sed '$d'|awk '{print substr($0, 1, 8); print substr($0, 9, 7)}' >> outfile
host1> tail -2 file1 >> outfile
host1> cat outfile
header...

following:


host1> cat file1
header
summary1detail1
summary2detail2
summary3detail3
trailer1
trailer2
