WordPerfect® 5.1 for DOS

Problem

Symptoms: The customer is using the IBM 4019 Laser printer. When the customer uses the italic attribute on a line of text, the text prints with underlining instead of italics. The customer has an (801) Italics font cartridge in the printer. The Automatic Font Changes (AFCs) and Substitute Font Changes (SFCs) are set correctly. The only way the customer has found to have the italic attribute work correctly is to actually select an italic font. Solutions: This problem will be fixed in the next release of the printer driver after 11/09/90. If the customer cannot wait for the updated driver, the following steps will correct the problem:
1.      Enter the PTR program, retrieve the .PRS file, and press Enter on the printer name
2.      Press Enter on Fonts
3.      Highlight the (801) Boldface 12pt Italic font and press Enter
4.      Highlight Typeface and press Enter
5.      Select Add to make a new typeface. Call the new typeface Century (Italic) and use the Century font as a pattern.
6.      Once the new typeface is created, mark it with an asterisk (*) and press Enter on the new typeface name
7.      Press Enter on Attributes
8.      Place an asterisk (*) next to Italic
9.      Exit (F7) this menu until you reach the Fonts menu. Press Enter on Boldface 12pt font and select the (801) Boldface 12pt Italic font as the Automatic Font Change (AFC).
10.      Exit the PTR program and save the .PRS file
