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

Problem

Symptoms: Documents created in WP 5.0 with Fontware Bits Charter Roman 11pt (ASCII) are converting to FaceLift Bitstream Charter 8.4pt when retrieved into WP 5.1. Solutions: The font cell height value for the Bits Charter Roman 11pt (ASCII) font is 8.4pt. By editing the .PRS file, changing the value to 11pt, and then saving the document in WP 5.0, the document will convert to the 11pt font when retrieved into WP 5.1.

Two disadvantages to this are that the document will need to be checked in WP 5.0 to make sure the correct font is selected when it is saved; and, because the font cell height has been changed, the line height will change when it is printed in WP 5.0. If customers are using a lot of fonts, this will involve a lot of work and may not be an acceptable solution.
