Fonts - Wrong AFCs Chosen For Base Fonts |
The information in this document applies to:
WordPerfect® 5.1 for DOS
Problem
Symptoms: The customer is using an AC Times Roman 12pt font, but most of the Automatic Font Changes (AFCs) are set to a scalable Handel Roman (by FaceLift) font. The customer has a scalable Swiss font that would match the Times Roman font, but WP does not select that font. The customer would like to know why the AFCs are not selected correctly. Solutions: With each font there is typeface information that tells WordPerfect what the font looks like. WP sees (with the typeface information) that the Handel font looks like the Times Roman. A human eye can tell the difference, but the program cannot tell based upon the information. To correct this situation, the user needs to make the Handel font information look different to WP. This can be done by using the following steps: 1. Enter the PTR Program, retrieve the printer driver .ALL file, and press Enter on the printer name 2. Highlight Fonts and press Enter 3. Highlight Soft Fonts and the FW Library, press Enter 4. Highlight the Handel font and press Enter 5. Go to Typeface and press Enter 6. Press Enter to edit the typeface 7. Go to Stress and press enter 8. Highlight Exaggerated and type an asterisk (*) 9. Exit the PTR Program and save the modified .ALL file 10. Enter WP and reselect the printer (update will not work in this case) The typeface information has been entered by FaceLift, and WP is working correctly in this case. There is nothing else that can be done. WP does not know what the font looks like, and the typeface information is the only way to describe to WP what the font looks like. If this information is not as truthful as it could be, the program can give strange AFCs (not sizes, but typefaces). |
