WordPerfect® 5.1 for DOS

Problem

Symptoms: The customer is wondering why the additional driver in 5.1 still only has 22 total listings for the internal fonts, while the 5.0 driver had a total of 30 internal or built-in fonts. Specifically relating to the 15 and 17 cpi fonts--the names have been changed. Also, his AFC's while using the Courier 10 cpi font do not match up correctly when he retrieves a 5.0 document into 5.1. The Large attribute does not produce a double wide as it says it does in PTR, but rather a regular 6 cpi font. Also, from a blank screen in 5.1, all AFC's appear to work as designed, but on retrieval of a 5.0 Document, they are inconsistent. The same is also true on the subscript font change.

All of these fonts are variations of the 17 cpi half high font with
different spacing, the printer does not actually have them
internally, they were being created in WordPerfect. WordPerfect
in 5.1 decided to only support the fonts that were internal in the
printer without any variations on those fonts. They can convert
the old driver in the 5.1 PTR and copy the fonts to the new driver
if they would like to, but the warnings that the convert program
gives them will still apply.
