An ASCII file can include some formatting codes like carriage returns and tab codes. When you convert a Word Processing file into an ASCII file, you have a choice: • Text Only removes all formatting codes from the file. When you import such a file into a personal computer word processing system, the text will automatically be adapted to the format of the PC word processing program. • Text with Layout preserves some of the format of the file. A carriage return will be added at the end of each screen line. However, if the margins of your original file are unusually wide, additional carriage returns will be placed into the file and reformatting will be necessary. 1.
