Problem

Symptoms: When converting to RFT format the fonts are not correct. The user converts to rft (using a .crs file), it converts to the correct font but uses a line format code (rft) instead of a regular format code, a carriage return is inserted after the font change which may occur in the middle of a line. With a regular format code, this will not happen. Solutions: The Line Format Change is used because DisplayWrite does not recognize the code that changes it in the middle of the line. If the font is changed in the middle of a line DisplayWrite forces it to the beginning of the line. Since the DCA/RFT conversion was written primarily for conversion with DisplayWrite, the Line Format Change is used. If the code that allows a font change in the middle of a line is used DisplayWrite will ignore it. I know this is not how some word processors like WordPerfect work but conversions are full of compromises.
