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

Problem

Symptoms: The downloadable soft fonts on the IBM Proprinter XL24 (Additional) driver do not show up in cartridges and fonts. The user has the 11/06/89 printer driver release.

It seems to me that in the WPDM59.ALL file, there are contradictory settings for the downloadable soft fonts for the XL24. Under FONTS, the shareable library
      Soft Fonts (Kb)
      X24 Soft Fonts
is marked, but in the RESOURCES section, the selected type is:
      Soft Fonts (Slots).

Consequently, when one selects the printer in WP, and attempts to edit the printer with to select soft fonts, the list comes up empty. You can fix it by doing the following:

1.      Type PTR at the proper DOS prompt and retrieve the *.ALL file.
2.      Press Enter on the Printer Name.
3.      Go to Resources and press Enter.
4.      Go to Soft Fonts and press enter.
5.      Go to Soft Fonts (Kb) and put an asterisk next to it in order to select it.
6.      Press F7 to exit and save the file. Update the printer in WordPerfect. Solutions: The problem with the IBM Proprinter XL24 (Additional) driver has been fixed and will be available on the next printer master dated 1/5/90. The fix you suggest is the correct fix.
