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

Problem

Symptoms: A customer has a file previously saved from a PaintShow Plus PCX format to a TIFF file. In WordPerfect 5.0, the user would block the user box code from a previous file and bring the code into a new file. This procedure worked. However, in 5.1, if the customer blocks the user box code from a 5.0 document and brings it into 5.1, there is a blank space where the graphic should be located. The customer tried accessing the original PCX file in PaintShow and again converted it to TIFF and brought it in 5.1. The user saw the same problem. NOTE: This problem is true for PCX graphics (without converting to TIFF format) as well. Solutions: The graphics needed to be recreated in 5.1. Because of the changes made to the way TIFF files are imported between 5.0 and 5.1, the image needed to be moved and scaled inside the graphics box again to view properly. See memo WP51_2724N for an explanation of the changes made to TIFF importing. The problem with this file is that it has non-standard dpi settings (85 dpi horizontal, 55 dpi vertical).
