All formats that appear in an ITF text, with the exception of line feeds and tabs, are taken out. The pure ASCll text, as it would appear when printed, is transferred. Some formatting is possible only via the line width parameter. Variable symbols are replaced, includes and control structures are canceled.

The ITF text can be converted to any character set that is maintained in the Spool Administration (SPAD).

All ASCII files can be loaded into the SAPscript editors. You must specify the character set of the file, that is, its number in the spool administration SPAD. The system then converts it to the system character set.
