DocumentID: 645101
Revision Date: 29-Feb-96 8:19:03 PM

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

Problem

Symptoms: The customer cannot get small caps to print on the Panasonic KX-P1524 printer. We tried changing attribute ratios for both FINE and Super/Subscript Off but it did not work. Solutions: The problem is that the super and subscript fonts were eliminated in WP 5.1. This customer's printer driver was modified in the following way to take care of the problem:

1.      Enter the PTR program and retrieve the WPDM7.ALL file.
2.      Move to the Panasonic KX-P1524 printer and press Enter.
3.      Move to "Fonts" and press Enter.
4.      Press Enter on the selection that is marked with an "*". This will place the cursor in the screen that has the various fonts listed.
6.      Move to Courier 10 CPI font and press #1 to Add.
7.      Name the font Subscript 10 CPI.
8.      Press Enter on the new font and move to "Size and Spacing Information" and press Enter.
9.      Move to "Point Size" and change it from 12 to 9.
10.      Move to "Font Cell Height" and change it from 9 to 6.
11.      Press Exit (F7).
12.      Move to "Load and Select Strings", and then to "Select Font".
13.      Press the right arrow key to move to the "Expression" box.
15.      Move to the end of the expression for "Select Font".
*16.      Type subon and press Enter.
*17.      For "Deselect Font" type in subof
18.      Press Exit (F7) until you reach the font list and repeat the above steps 6-17 for the Courier 12 and 15 CPI fonts. Remember to name them Subscript 12 and Subscript 15 respectively.
19.      Exit and save the file.

* Subon and Subof are strings that are already defined. The strings are:
subon=[27]"T"
subof=[27]"S"[1]

**Note**
The printer driver was changed in WP 5.1 because of WordPerfect's ability to use automatic super and subscript codes. These are the steps to modify the driver. This has been entered as an Enhancement Request.
