Kerning - IQ Engineering Super Cartridge 3 |
The information in this document applies to:
WordPerfect® 5.1 for DOS
Problem
Symptoms: A customer is using the IQ Engineering Super Cartridge 3 with the HP LaserJet III printer. When Kerning is on, double letter pairs such as in "difficult" will not print out. This did not happen on the earlier release dates of WordPerfect. This happens when accessing any fonts on the cartridge. Solutions: The compose characters 4,51-53 , or kerning characters ff, ffi, or ffl will not print with the IQ Super Cartridge 3 fonts. IQ installs their font information into WordPerfect's .ALL file using Autofont and the HP III (PC-8 w/subs) character map for its fonts. In that set for characters 4,51-53, WP switches to the Microsoft Publishing symbol set to access the characters ff ffi and ffl. IQ has copied an HP symbol set into their cartridge font. However, there is one problem. They have left several characters off of this symbol set in their cartridge. The characters are 4,51-53 and 4,43. When kerning is used, WP uses the 4,51-55 character combinations, because they are already pre-kerned. For the word "difficult", instead of WP sending each letter and position, the character 4,52 is substituted for the characters ffi. Since this character is not on the IQ cartridge, nothing is printed. To correct this problem follow these steps: 1. After entering the PTR program, retrieve the .ALL file and press F4, Character Maps. 2. Cursor to HP III PC-8 (w/subs) and press Enter. 3. Cursor to characters 4,51-55 and delete all values in the expression boxes. 4. Exit, save, and replace. 5. Re-select the printer from the edited .ALL file. |
