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

Problem

Symptoms: The Apple Laserwriter Plus is not printing all the extended characters in the back of the manual. Specifically, the greek characters, the dagger, the double dagger, etc. Solutions: There are many font versions on PostScript printers. Our printer driver is set up for the latest font revision. If users cannot get certain characters to print, have them do the following so that WP will create the character graphically:

1.      Type PTR at the proper DOS prompt and retrieve the *.ALL file.
2.      Go to the Printer Name and press Enter.
3.      Go to Fonts and press Enter
4.      Press Enter on the Font Library being used. (The one with an asterisk next to it.)
5.      Press Enter on the Typeface being used. (The one with an asterisk next to it.)
6.      Go to Character Map and press Enter.
7.      Press Enter on the Character Map being used. (The one with an asterisk next to it.)
8.      Go to the character in question, and delete the Printer Command String next to it. If you delete the code, WP will graphically create the character.
9.      Go into WP, Press Shft-F7, "S" for Select Printer, then 7 for Update.
10.      Go back into PTR, retrieve the .PRS file, and delete the substitute
fonts for the font that was just changed.
