You are probably unaware that I'm the one that originally designed and created the *.rtf format that Hoster uses to create songbooks. MTU is allowed to use this format in their program and the above snippet came from the original implementation notes that accompanied the software code given to MTU.
A combination software programmer, database publisher and graphic expert, I began with software programming PCL (that's
Printer
Control
Language) for the original "Laser Jet" series produced by Hewlett Packard. What a pain the rear that was! I later taught myself how to program desired layouts using Rich Text Formatting (.rtf) which is why Hoster produces these files rather than printing directly. Writing software to control a printer/printing functions is the most difficult, repetitive, mundane and complex code you could imagine. Especially with the number and differences of printers manufactured today.
As a national seminar instructor, I taught 6-hour desktop publishing seminars in over 70 cities per year and produced instruction materials as well.
Here's a link to a type comparison book, make sure you read the publisher's note at the bottom of the page:
