WordPerfect® 5.1 for DOS

Problem

Symptoms: The customer has the QMS PS 810, but this can be duplicated with the HP LaserJet IID. When using the characters 8,71; 8,79; etc. (accent marks) with lowercase letters they work fine, however, when using them with uppercase letters, the accent marks run into the letter. (This is all when using overstrike). Solutions: The characters used in compose are only characters, and their positions have been preset. They will always print in the same location within the character cell. Because the customer is using overstrike, overstrike is all they will get (one character on top of another). If the customer would like the characters with accents, or whatever, they can use compose. Or if the character that they want is not one of WordPerfect's compose characters, they will need to use Advance to position the two characters so that they print the way the customer wants them to.
