  Print Format

  Files contain different character sets and data types.  Each
  data type has a unique format.  The Print Format list box
  allows you to describe what kind of data is in the file.
  DECwindows then interprets that data, formats the data,
  and prints the file.

  A highlighted format in the Print Format box is the default
  format unless you change it.  The following formats are
  available in the Print Format box:

  Format Name        Data Type                     Data Translation
