Extra Returns At Top Of DOS File Printed To D |
The information in this document applies to:
WordPerfect® 5.1 for DOS
Problem
Symptoms: When the customer selects the DOS Text Printer driver, creates a document, and prints it to a file on disk, there are always two carriage return/line feed codes (0D0A hexadecimal) at the beginning of the first page of text. Also, at the end of the last line of the footer on the first page there are several carriage return/line feed codes (0D0A0C0D0A hexadecimal). This happens on the first page of every document the customer uses this method on. It results in a 60 line page turning into a 64 line page. Solutions: This problem occurs because of the codes used in the driver to perform a carriage return. The Perform Carriage Return code in the driver has a [13,10] which is a carriage return and a line feed. WordPerfect uses this code to reposition the print head in preparation to print. This results in some extra line feeds at the beginning and end of each page. To eliminate this problem, do the following in the PTR Program: 1. Retrieve the .ALL or .PRS file into the PTR Program. 2. Select Horizontal Motion and then Relative Horizontal Spacing (microspace). 3. Replace the [13,10] for Perform Carriage Return to [13]. Set Auto Line Feed on Carriage Return to YES. 4. Save the file and exit the PTR Program. 5. If you made the change to the .ALL file, update the .PRS file in WP (Shift-F7, S, 7). These changes should already be included in drivers dated after 12/28/90. You may also update customers to this printer release if they are experiencing this problem. |
