I asked about hand writing and the GSA claimed they don't have the paper to do that.

The other thread cited problems with creating a reissue mask in Dublin so I didn't think that would apply to an initial issuance set-up fine by Dublin. Grr - should have played safe and gone for a 16 segment first issue then re-issued later in London or the US.

Sounds like hand written is the only way for a GSA (who would otherwise print through SABRE) can issue a >16 segment ticket regardless of it's a reissue or an initial issue
