Problem

Symptoms: The customer's document contains Line Draw which spaces incorrectly when printed to an HP LaserJet IIISi. It prints fine when printed to an HP LaserJet Series II. He is using the Line Printer 16.67cpi font in the document. Solutions: The customer was using the triangle character from set 6 in his Line Draw. The Automatic Font Change (AFC) for the Line Printer font on the HP IIISi lists the Univers Condensed font for this character set. The AFC for the Line Printer font on the HP LaserJet II and III printers is blank. Since WordPerfect looks for the AFC's character set before its own set if one is listed, the Univers condensed character was included in the line draw. Since the character was a different width than a line printer character, the result was different spacing. The easiest solution for this customer was to go into Built-In fonts (Shift-F7, S, E, 4) and remove the asterisk from the Univers Condensed font. *This information is given strictly as a troubleshooting option.
