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

Problem

Symptoms: There is a problem with obtaining the 1000 X 1000 resolution with the LaserMaster fonts and WordPerfect. The customer has compared the output of the 135 Typefaces driver for WP 5.1 shipped with the latest version of the LaserMaster software (3.5). The customer has found that WP prints fonts at a different resolution than PageMaker. If the customer takes a file from WP to PageMaker to compare the characters, there are more jagged edges in the WP version of the document. The LaserMaster fonts should print at the same resolution in both programs. Solutions: The problem is that the TurboRes feature on the LaserMaster card is disabled by the pattern printing capability added with the WordPerfect 5.1 interim release dated 06/29/90. The interim release of WP 5.1 following 12/31/90 should include a change to allow both TurboRes and pattern printing. In the meantime, to turn off color (pattern) printing and allow the TurboRes feature to function correctly, complete the following steps: 1. Make sure the customer has a backup copy of the .ALL file 2. Enter the PTR Program, press Shift-F10 and enter the name of the LaserMaster printer .ALL file. It will be WPMS1.ALL, WPMS11.ALL, or WPMS2.ALL. 4. Highlight the name of the LaserMaster driver and press Enter 5. Move the cursor to Attribute Methods and press Enter 6. Highlight Color and press Enter 7. Move the cursor to Color Not Supported and type an asterisk next to this menu option 8. Press Quit (Alt-F7), and save and replace the .ALL file 9. Exit the PTR program 10. Enter WordPerfect and update the .PRS file by pressing Print (Shift-F7), S (Select Printer), highlight the printer name, and press Update (7)
