1.      Enter the PTR Program, retrieve the printer driver (.ALL or .PRS file), and press Enter on the printer name.
2.      Go to Horizontal Motion and press Enter
3.      Go to Relative Horizontal Motion Spacing (there should be an asterisk next to this option)
4.      Go to Perform Carriage Return and press Enter
5.      Change the expression to read: [10,13]
6.      Exit the PTR Program and save the modified printer file.
7.      If the changes above were made to the .ALL file, update the .PRS file in WordPerfect by pressing Shift-F7 (Print), S (Select Printer), 7 (Update)
