Okidata ML 393 Compose Character 1,40
DocumentID: 647656

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

Problem

Symptoms: The compose character 1,40, the E with an accent over it, prints the E shorter than the regular capital E on the Okidata ML 393 printer. It makes the E look squished down, because the E with the accent mark and the regular E are the same height when printed. Solutions: This is the way Okidata designed this character to print. They wanted all the characters to stay within the same cell height. If the customer prefers for the E with the accent mark over it to be the same size as the capital letter E, they can let WP create it graphically. You can do the following in PTR:

1.      Type PTR at the proper DOS prompt and retrieve the *.ALL file.
2.      Press Enter on the Printer Name.
3.      Go to Fonts and press Enter.
4.      Press Enter until you get to the customer's base font.
5.      Press Enter on Character Maps.
6.      Go to character 1,40 and take out the ASCII code [144].
7.      Press F7 to save and exit the file. Update the printer driver in WordPerfect. This will slow down printing.
