character encoding scheme position 09 is always "a" and
descriptive cataloguing position 18 is always "a"

Resolution:

1 LDR## 018 018 FIXED-CHANGE-VAL #,a
1 LDR## 009 009 FIXED-CHANGE-VAL #,a

to be included in a $lib_tab/tab/import*.fix file e.g. ldr_standard.fix
Then called in $lib_tab/tab_fix via a line such as

LDR fix_doc_do_file_08 ldr_standard.fix
