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

Problem

Symptoms: This customer read in the April 1990 WP Corp. Report that the Georgian characters are not accessible with the new Russian module. Solutions: WordPerfect definitely does NOT support the Georgian characters in WP or in the Russian Language Module. WPCorp made a statement about its support for Georgian in a magazine article, but it may have been misleading. Please apologize to any customers who call in about this information. WPCorp is planning on releasing a Font Editor program for WP 5.1. This product will require EGA, VGA, or Hercules RamFont--as well as WP 5.1. With this program (release date unknown), the person will be able to create all of these characters in the User-defined (#12) character set. Users will also be able to write their own soft keyboard. Since users cannot modify the WP.DRS file, these characters will not print graphically or display in View. Users will need to find their own printer fonts and write their own driver. WP will not be able to accurately sort, convert to uppercase, spell-check and perform certain other functions with the Georgian text. In order to have this level of support, WPCorp would have to add Georgian to the list of supported languages--which it has no plans of doing for the time being.
