permissions issue on print to a file

[Richard D. Williams]

RH enterprise FP 5.6.03D4

situtation:

logged in as richardw, regular user
accessing a record in fileA.
using system command to access record in fileB.
execute a print form to a file
that file ends up with permissions of:
-rw-------  1 filepro users 8796 Dec  1 12:14 richardw

When I try to convert this to pdf, using pcl2pdf, it result in a 
permissions error and the pdf is not created.

I have tried to do a system command "chmod 666 /appl/fpmerge/richardw, 
before doing the pcl2pdf conversion, but the file perms are unchanged.

If I go directly to fileB and execute the same print form process as 
user richardw, it will create the same file with different permissions 
and the pcl2pdf will create the pdf file correctly.

-rw-r--r--  1 filepro  users 3494 Dec  1 13:07 richardw
-rwxrwxrwx  1 richardw users 5117 Dec  1 12:31 richardw.pdf

Is this a umask issue?
Obviously, the problem is caused when I use the system command to access 
fileB.  Because the user @ID is now filepro.  But, if I am executing the 
print command to a file as filepro, shouldn't that run as a regular 
user?  Or, do I have to make some umask change to accomplish this task?

Any input very welcome,

Richard D. Williams
