Problem

Solutions: Problem 1:
Text disappears and duplicates itself on the next line. This happens while a user cursors through existing text or types in text. The duplication continues for three or four lines, and then remains on the screen until the user presses Rewrite (Ctrl-F3). Also, when the customer uses the Indent key, the text does adjust the way it should. But if the user makes some editing changes and deletes some words, the text does not adjust properly. At this point, the same sentence will appear twice, until the customer scrolls down a line, and then the initial sentence will appear only once and the following sentence will appear twice. This only happens on the screen, not in Reveal Codes or when it is printed.

Problem 2:
When a customer tried to print a document, the message "Divide Overflow" appeared. When the customer retrieved the document, it contained garbage.

Answer:
The rewrite problem can be caused by a [DSrt] code before a Justification code. The "Divide Overflow" problem can be caused by using an Indent code after a soft return [SRt]. This will cause WordPerfect to format the page on the screen incorrectly and may cause the "Divide Overflow" error message.

These formatting problems were corrected in the 12/31/90 release.
