Problem

There is no limit to the amount of text you can have in a graphic box caption. Concept WordPerfect 5.1 for DOS only allowed 256 bytes (about 256 characters) of information in a caption. WordPerfect 6.0 for DOS treats graphic captions as normal editing structures (such as headers and footers) so there is no limitation. For example, a caption could actually be a page long. How Do I Use It? To create a graphics caption, 1 Choose Graphics Boxes from the Graphics menu, or press Graphics (Alt+F9) and choose Graphics Boxes (1). 2 Choose Create (1), then choose Create Caption (4). 3 Type in the caption. Experiment with this enhancement by typing in as much text as you want. When you have finished typing the caption, 4 Press Exit (F7) to return to the Create Graphics Box dialog box. 5 Choose OK to return to the document editing screen. Use Print Preview to view the caption you have created. 1 Choose Print/Fax from the File menu or press Print/Fax (Shift+F7). 2 Choose Print Preview (7).
