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

Problem

Symptoms: The WordPerfect Reference Manual states that pressing Center (Shift-F6) twice will put dot leaders through the center of the page. When the customer uses this keystroke, the dot leaders will appear on the display screen, but they will not print. Also, Center Dot Leader Tabs will not view or print if there is no text on the same line as the Tabs. Solutions: WP will not send any unnecessary codes when printing, thereby speeding up the printing process. If WP does not detect any text on a line when formatting a document for printing, it will go to the next line down and check for text. If you type a period and then press Center twice, the dot leaders will print. In Reveal Codes you will notice only a Center code. WP does not recognize the dot leaders as text. The customer can work around the problem with Center Dot Leader Tabs not viewing or printing by inserting a Hard Space (Ctrl-Space Bar) to the right of the Center Tab code. This occurs in WP 5.1 for DOS, WPWin 5.1, and WPWin 5.2. Status: Sent to Development ***|sent to dev|*** Press Enter on link token.
