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

Problem

Symptoms: WordPerfect uses both enhanced bold (vertical offset) and emphasized bold (horizontal offset) for Auto Bold. The customer is using an Okidata ML 293 (IBM) printer, which does not support emphasized bold with a 17cpi font. For this reason, the user sends a printer command at the beginning of the 17cpi font to disable emphasized bold. However, this causes the superscript and subscript text to print in an incorrect place. Solutions: This problems occurs because the driver is not sending the multiple passes or text for superscript and subscript. The printer automatically does this because of the different baselines. Therefore, the printer command only takes effect on one pass.
