WordPerfect® 5.1 for DOS

Problem

Symptoms: Many times retrieved graphics contain extra white space between the border of the graphic and the graphic image itself.

One customer creates a drawing in PC Paintbrush 4.0, scales it to the largest size possible, then imports it into WordPerfect as a PCX file. In the graphics edit screen, it appears as just a tiny drawing in the upper left corner, there is a lot of extra white space on the bottom and right of the image. Solutions: To correct this, users can auto size the box. Also, users can edit the box and scale the X or the Y axis of the graphic. This will stretch the graphic either wider, taller, or both.

Users can also take the image back into the program that created the graphic and re-save the graphic in the desired size. Then when the graphic is retrieved into WP, users can auto size the graphic to eliminate extra white space.

One customer was creating the image in PC Paintbrush Plus in the window that displayed. The drawing size in Paintbrush was set large enough that there was a lot of white space "off screen" which was being saved with the file. The customer needs to set the drawing size in Paintbrush to the size wanted in WP and use all the drawing area, including that which is off the screen. The drawing then should import correctly.
