HP DeskJet 500 - Characters 4,1 And 4,0 Print |
The information in this document applies to:
WordPerfect® 5.1 for DOS
Problem
Symptoms: Compose characters 4,1 and 4,0 in the Courier 10 font print the same. But when the customer uses a CG Times Font, the characters print differently. The codes are even different; so, why are these characters printing exactly the same when using the Courier 10 font? The customer has the HP DeskJet 500. Solutions: These characters are indeed different. When the customer prints these characters in Internal CG Times 12pt on the HP DeskJet 500, these characters look different because these characters do not have a PS Value. Thus the characters are printing out graphically using the WP.DRS file. By inserting the PS values, these characters will print as they do when the Courier 10 font is used but with the CG Times Font. Thus, WordPerfect is sending the correct values for the bullet characters 4,0 and 4,3. If the customer wants these characters to print out using the WP.DRS file, then the characters need to be unmapped in the Character Map in the PTR program. Currently most users are accustomed to the way these characters print; therefore, changes will not be made to the PRINTER.ALL file. To unmap the characters follow the steps listed: 1. Go into the PTR and retrieve the PRINTER.ALL file and select the printer. 2. Move down to Fonts and press Enter. 3. Move down to the Courier 10 PC Font, press Enter. 4. Move down to Character Map, press Enter twice. 5. Press the Page Down key four times to get to 4,0 and 4,3. Take out the commands for these characters. 6. Exit the PTR program and save the file. 7. Go into WP and press Shift-F7, S, and 7 to update the PRINTER.PRS file. This change will cause these two bullet characters to be printed graphically in all of the internal fonts. |
