Times Roman Italic Font Doesn't Print On Some
DocumentID: 636429
Revision Date: 29-Feb-96 3:04:14 PM

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

Problem

Symptoms: The customer can not get the Times Roman Italic fonts to print on her IBM 4216-20 printer from WP51, or even from DOS. Solutions: Depending on the ROM revision, the printer does not default with the Times Roman Italic (Bold Italic) fonts in the printer. To verify if the printer has this font, do the following:
      copy con LPT1 (or port being used)
      /times-italic findfont
      25 scalefont
      setfont
      200 200 moveto
      (test) show
      showpage
      ^D
      ^Z
If the font does not work at DOS, then it is not in the printer. WordPerfect does not plan to change the printer driver because this font is in some of the IBM 4216-20 printers, depending on the ROM release. The newer revisions have removed this font.
