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

Problem

Symptoms: The customer is using WordPerfect 5.1, an OCR reader for scanning documents, and a QMS PostScript 810 printer. The OCR reader reads the documents in as ASCII text but holds onto one inch left and right margins. When the document is retrieved into WP, the margins are represented by seven spaces from the left and right edges of the paper. When the customer was using WP 5.0, she was able to select 0,0 left and right margins which compensated for the extra spaces. In WP 5.1, however, she cannot select 0,0 margins because of the unprintable region. Is this a problem or an enhancement? Solutions: This is neither a problem nor an enhancement. WordPerfect must have an unprintable zone. The customer can make changes in their printer driver, but changes will not be made to the shipping driver. To make the changes:
1.      Go into PTR and retrieve the printer driver
2.      Go to Misc Numbers and change the Minimum Margins to zero
3.       Exit and save
