WordPerfect® 5.1 for DOS

Problem

Symptoms: When the customer creates newspaper columns, they are almost never full page length. Consequently, to have Column 1 end on the same line as Column 2, the customer inserts a hard page [HPg] code at a half-way point in the text. Editing changes frequently necessitate relocating the [HPg] code if the columns are to remain balanced. However, when the user deletes the [HPg] code, another [HPg] code is automatically inserted before the Column Off code, which the user must then delete. Solutions: This problem can be avoided by blocking and moving text relative to the [HPg] code, rather than by trying to move the [HPg] code.

Note: If a customer says that hard pages are inserted automatically when turning the column feature off, it is because they have not entered a sufficient amount of hard pages in the text to divide it up in the number of columns that have been defined. So, WP will put the remaining hard pages just before the column off code.
