The information in this document applies to:
WordPerfect® 6.0 for DOS

Problem

Symptoms: A document with document initial codes containing a A4 form does not convert the A4 form correctly when converted to WordPerfect 5.1/5.2 format. Solutions: The file is being correctly converted. If in WP 5.1 that same paper/size and type is not available or has not been first created, WP 5.1 will default to the [ALL OTHERS] type. For example: I selected the HPIII printer in WP 5.1 DOS. If I retrieve the file with an A4 paper size and type, the paper size and type is converted to [All OTHERS]. If I try to manually create the paper size and type, WP 5.1 DOS generates an error indicating the "Size Requested is not available" for the HPIII. If I then switch the printer to an HPIIIsi and open the same converted 5.1 file, I get the correct A4 size paper type. This is working as designed. WP can only select a paper size and type if that type is available for the Printer you have selected. If the printer or driver does not support the paper/size and type, WP will select the [ALL OTHERS] paper size and type.
