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

Problem

Symptoms: WordPerfect 5.1 formats a document differently than the program did in WP 5.0 when the document is saved as DOS Text. When uploading an ASCII converted document to a mainframe, word wraps and hard page breaks are different. Solutions: Development is aware of the situation, but do not know the reason for the difference. A workaround is to print the files to disk using the DOS Text printer before uploading the files to the mainframe. This will completely format the documents in an ASCII Text format.
