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

Problem

Symptoms: The user spaces over and presses F8 for underline, then the space bar twice. Then, he presses the right arrow key once to get past the [Und:Off] code, and then return. He then spaces over and types AB under those two underlined spaces. In 5.1, in View Document, the underline extends past the right edge of the letter B, and he says it prints that way as well. The user has the 11/14/89 printer release dates. Solutions: There is a left bias in the driver which should not be there. This can cause incorrect spacing between text, attributes and graphics (especially on a printer that uses spaces for motion). This bias will be removed in the next printer release. We do not anticipate another printer release until at least May. You can help the customer in the mean time by doing the following: 1. Type PTR at the proper DOS prompt and retrieve the *.PRS file. 2. Press Enter on the Printer Name. 3. Go to Printer Commands and press Enter. 4. Remove the left bias code and press F7 to save and exit the file. This is also the reason that we sometimes see horizontal position problems with graphics or graphics characters in relation to the text.
