Tabbed Lines And Spaced Lines Not Lining Up W |

WordPerfect® 5.1 for DOS
Problem
Symptoms: Characters lined up on the display screen with both spaces and tabs are not lining up in View Document or when printed. The customer had been told that as long as he used a fixed-pitch font such as Courier 10cpi, he could use spaces or tabs to line up information vertically on the display screen, and that it would view and print lined up. When he set up his tabs, he used a fraction. For example, the tabs started at 0 and were set at every 7/8 of an inch. Some of the lines contained tabs and some contained spaces. Solutions: If the denominator of the fraction used to set up tabs does not equal the font cpi, or if the denominator does not divide into the cpi value with a resulting whole number, the tabbed lines and the spaced lines will not line up vertically. Though they do line up visually on the display screen, if the customer looks at the position on the status line, he will be able to tell that they are not lining up. In this case, the customer should either use all spaces or all tabs to line up the characters and it will work with the fixed-pitch font. *This information is given strictly as a troubleshooting option. |
