WordPerfect® 5.1 for DOS

Problem

Solutions: Accented Spanish characters did not appear in View Document and were replaced with blank spaces when printed. The customer was using a Tandy DWP 520 printer. The WordPerfect driver for this printer does not contain codes for the Spanish characters or symbols. To print the characters, codes will need to be added to the driver. The necessary character codes can be found in the Tandy DWP 520 printer manual.

The following steps explain how to edit the driver:
1.      Type PTR at the DOS prompt containing PTR.EXE
2.      Retrieve the TADWP230.PRS file
3.      Press Enter on the printer name
4.      Press Enter on Fonts
5.      Press Enter on the desired font
6.      Press Enter on Character Map
7.      Press Enter on the character map marked with an asterisk
8.      Locate the desired Spanish character. Press Ctrl-Enter to enter the codes in the window. Type the code, and press F7 to exit the window. Following this step until all characters are mapped.
9.      Exit PTR, saving the changes
