WordPerfect® 5.1 for DOS

Problem

Solutions: The customer would like to relay some information to us that may be of help to us and our customers. The customer said that they used "Glyphix" soft fonts in WordPerfect 5.0 and tried to convert the .PRS file that "Glyphix" created to WP 5.1. They brought the .PRS file into the PTR (invoking the PTR at the C:\WP51 DOS prompt) program using the /CONVERT filename startup option at the DOS prompt. When the user did this, the conversion process began but soon locked up. This happened each time the user attempted this conversion. The user then tried starting the PTR program from the subdirectory where "Glyphix" was located. The conversion was completed and the user was able to successfully use this converted WP 5.0 .PRS file in WP 5.1 and it prints out fine in the "Glyphix" fonts.
