Problem

Solutions: Hewlett-Packard produces soft fonts named Decorative soft fonts. These soft fonts have three different disk sets, Decorative 1, Decorative 2 and Decorative Words 1. Decorative Words 1 is a combination of the DEC 1 and DEC 2 disks. Customers often confuse the Decorative 1 disk with the Decorative Words 1 disk. These fonts are scalable disk based fonts.

If the customer has an HP LaserJet III or higher printer, the customer should use Autofont to install the Decorative fonts information into the WordPerfect drivers. But, if the customer is using an HP LaserJet Series II or compatible, they should use Type Director to install Decorative fonts as bit-mapped fonts in the WP drivers.

If Autofont was used for the installation, the dingbat font characters found in Decorative Words 1 are created in the PostScript symbol set. This is because that is all Autofont will choose. If the Decorative fonts are installed using Type Director, five different symbol sets can be chosen, DS, d100, D200, D300, and Ventura. The characters should be mapped in character set 12. The customer will need to use the Compose feature in WP to access the dingbat characters.
