WordPerfect® 5.1 for DOS

Problem

Solutions: If an HP printer is printing extremely slow in 5.1, one thing to troubleshoot is the base font. Math7, Math8, Pi, and Line Draw fonts do not include any alphabet characters. If any one of these fonts is the base font, WordPerfect has to go through AFCs and substitute fonts for each alphabet character on the page, adding about 45 seconds print time per page. If the alphabet characters are not found in any of these character sets, WP will graphically create the characters, which takes even longer. This is true with Line Draw characters as well. A quick check to see if WP is printing the document graphically is to view the document with Graphics Quality set to Do Not Print. In most cases, customers should not select the math fonts as the base font. With the regular font as the base font, WP will print extended characters through substitute fonts.
