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

Problem

Symptoms: The customer is using the NEC Spinwriter 8850 printer with the Bold PS print wheel. The customer has compared a WordPerfect 4.0 document with a document from version 5.1. The spacing between the characters in the Bold PS font is too close in the WP 5.1 document. This problem did not exist in WP 5.0. Solutions: In WordPerfect 4.0, the program calculated the spacing between each character. In version 5.1, the program calculates the spacing between the words, not between the characters. The printer itself is calculating the distance between each character. The customer can change the letter spacing by pressing Shift-F8 (Format), 4 (Other), 6 (Printer Functions), 3 (Word & Letter Spacing). This feature allows WP to help in calculating the character spacing.
