HP LaserJet IID--Apostrophe on the S2 Cartrid |
The information in this document applies to:
WordPerfect® 5.1 for DOS
Problem
Symptoms: In 5.0, prior to 4-89, the S2 cartridge for the HP printers allowed the apostrophe to be curved, thus letting it look like an end quote. In SCN of 4-29-89, the character maps were changed, so now this doesn't work. The customer noticed this in 5.1, when she tried to get the end quotes, and they came out straight, instead of curved. We used compose to get end quotes, but why did the character map change get rid of this ability? Solutions: How the single quote is printed will vary on the symbol set that is being accessed. In the older 5.0 driver we created a font for each symbol set. If you chose the Roman 8 font you would get a curved quote, if you chose the PC 8 font you would get a straight quote. To cut down on size we combined the fonts and symbol sets, and for the S2 cartridge we set the default to PC 8, and used variables to access the additional characters from the Roman 8 set that were not available in the PC 8 set. If she wants to have the curved quote she need only: 1. Retrieve in her ALL file into the PTR program 2. Press F4 (character maps) 3. Move her cursor to HP PC 8 W/Substitutes and press Enter 4. Move to 0,39 5. Press enter to go into the expression box and change it so it now reads: r8"'"pc8 6. Exit, save, and update |
