Problem

Solutions: A customer was unable to get small caps to print on his Canon LBP-8IIR. The letters would come out as capitals, but would remain in the same font size, Courier [10]. We went into PTR and discovered that the Automatic Font Change for small caps was set incorrectly. It is set so that the base font will change back to itself (the text will be converted into uppercase), not to a smaller font.

To correct this problem the Automatic Font Change in the PTR program can be changed to Courier Footnote (which is a smaller font).

For the 09/14/89 CALBP8II.PRS, the correction steps would be:
1.      Type PTR at the DOS prompt
2.      Press ENTER on the Canon LBP-8IIR printer definition
3.      Cursor to FONTS, press ENTER
4.      Cursor to the Courier font, press ENTER
5.      Cursor to Automatic Font Changes, press ENTER
6.      Cursor to SMALL CAPS, press ENTER
7.      Move down the list of fonts to COURIER FOOTNOTE
8.      Insert an asterisk (*) beside the font
9.      Exit the PTR program saving the changes

When Small Caps is used after making this change, the uppercase Courier Footnote font will be printed.

The same Automatic Font Change is made in the WordPerfect 5.1 Canon driver. The steps taken to make the changes would be the same with the exception of the font names. The courier font is named Courier 10cpi in 5.1 and the Automatic Font Change would be changed to go to Courier Footnote 8 or 16cpi. The user may choose the size that they would prefer.
