QMS PS 810 Rotating Text In A Text Box
DocumentID: 646436

The information in this document applies to:
WordPerfect® 5.1 for DOS

Problem

Symptoms: The user created a half sheet form and on the top half of the page he has an address that will be printed upside-down (using a text box and rotating the text 180 degrees). The upside-down text is moved way over to the left and down to far. Solutions: This was a problem with the way we were calculating printhead bias in the printer definition. The user should take out the text adjustment in his forms and make this change in his .ALL file by doing the following:

1.      Type PTR at the proper DOS prompt and retrieve the *.ALL file.
2.      Press Enter on the Printer Name.
3.      Go to Initialize and Reset and press Enter.
4.      Move the right arrow key to the Expression Box and press F9.
5.      Then press ALT-F8 (global variables).
6.      Move your cursor down to phbiast and press Enter, then CTRL-PGUP (this will take you into a full page editing screen).
7.      After ELSEIF(ORIENTATION==2&&FORMLENGTH<=13200) -(13200-FORMLENGTH+phbias add this line:
      ELSEIF(ORIENTATION==0) (13200-FORMLENGTH)
8.      Press F7 to exit and save the file. Remember to update the printer in WordPerfect. This should be fixed on the next printer master after the 1/5/90 release. Please watch your Software Change Notices.
