Problem

Symptoms: When a customer selects a Helvetica 8pt font from the Pacific Data Products 25-in-One! cartridge, changes the margins to the printer's minimum margins, and places a Bold attribute on text, that text displays correctly in View Document but does not print bolded. Solutions: To correct the problem increase the left margin to .28". Bold does not work with a Helvetica 8pt PDP font and a minimum left margin. The Helvetica fonts on the PDP cartridge use a -20 character adjust offset so the left side of the characters will line up at the correct margin position. This left adjustment can affect a Bold code, if the printer uses multiple pass, and if the user uses minimum margins. If the user is using a minimum left margin, the X position is already at 0. The cartridge cannot subtract from this value. As WP made each pass, the left position never went past 0, because the character adjust would always reset back to 0.
