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

Problem

Symptoms: It is necessary to have at least a .5" right margin with an 80-column printer. Otherwise, text on the right side of the page either disappears or wraps to the next line. Solutions: There are about 300 80-column printers supported by WordPerfect. With these printers, right margins of less than .5" will cause text to wrap incorrectly or disappear. This occurs because 80 column printers only allow 80 characters to print per line, if users select smaller margins than the default and use a Courier 10pt font, all of the text may not fit across the line and characters will be pushed to the next line. This is a limitation of this type of printer which includes all brands of dot-matrix printers including, but not limited to, Epson, Panasonic, Star, Fujitsu, Toshiba, IBM, NEC, Okidata, Alps, C.ITOH, Brother, Tandy, and Citizen.
