WordPerfect® 5.1 for DOS

Problem

Symptoms: Why do you have to have the footer code placed at the top of the page before text in order for the footer to be placed on that page. You used to be able to place the footer anywhere on that same page in 5.0 and it would appear on that page in View Document. Solutions: In 5.0 if you put a header and a footer in the middle of the page the header was effective on the following page, with the footer effective on the current page, thus making the page length unpredictable. For consistency, we now make both codes effective on the following page unless they follow a page break. Also, this is clearly documented in the 5.1 Reference Manual on Page 295, under the section "Codes", paragraphs 2-4. Please put this in as an enhancement for the programmers if the customer would still prefer it the other way. The user could enter a HPG code before the footer.
