WordPerfect® 5.1 for DOS

Problem

Solutions: The user prints a WordPerfect file to disk for output on a Linotronic L100 or L300 typesetting machine, and would like to know how to get a higher resolution output. The typesetting machines require a PostScript file, and they can print between 1,270 and 2,540 dpi; however, most of WP's PostScript printer drivers can only go to 300 dpi. To resolve this, the user must go into the PTR program and change the graphics quality for High Resolution from 300 to 1200. Twelve-hundred is the highest WordPerfect can go to at this time. The steps to do this are as follows: 1. Type PTR from a DOS prompt 2. Retrieve the PostScript .ALL file 3. Highlight the printer they have selected. Press Enter. 4. Cursor down to Graphics Resolutions. Press Enter. 5. Change the dpi quantity, on the row that says HIGH, from 300 to 1200. Change the dpi quantity for all four columns in that row. 6. Exit and save the .ALL file 7. Update the .PRS file in WordPerfect. The customer should now be able to create a document and print it to disk. If they need any of the Additional Adobe typefaces, they will need to use the PostScript (Additional) printer driver.
