Problem

Symptoms: What is the Internal Substitute Font List referred to in the WordPerfect Printer Definition Program for WP 5.1 for DOS on page 54 under the section Character Maps, and is it possible to obtain a copy of it? Solutions: The Internal Substitute Font List is used by WordPerfect in cases where either the printer does not support graphics or the end user has set the Graphics Quality for printing to Do Not Print. When WP tries to print a character, it first checks the Automatic Font Change (AFC) to see if a font has been assigned to that character set. If the character is not mapped in the AFC, WP then looks in the list of Substitute Fonts (SFC). If the character is not mapped, WP will then try to graphically create the character. If the printer does not support graphics or if the end user sets the graphics print quality to Do Not Print, WP will look in the Internal Substitute Character List. The Internal Substitute Character List is a table that is embedded in the executable file that has a primary and secondary list of characters. WP performs an algorithm to determine the character that is the best match to the character that has been selected in WP.
