What is the difference between an ASCII/delimited file and a word processing document that is produced when a paper invoice is generated?
A word processing document contains text and a great deal of format coding for font, justification, columns, etc. An ASCII/delimited file is simply a text document with no format coding present. In ASCII files, such as LEDES 1998B, LEDES 1998BI, and PeerPoint, the data is also in a specific order with a pipe-character denoting the end of a field.
