5.50

MS-DOS

= SUMMARY =

Text formatted for superscript or subscript in Microsoft Word for MS-DOS version 5.5 may print with incorrect horizontal alignment on PostScript printers.

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Word 5.5. We are researching this problem and will post new information here as it becomes available.

This problem may be less noticeable in fonts other than Courier. The alignment problem does not occur in Word version 5.0.

= MORE INFORMATION =

Updated PostScript printer drivers that provide a workaround for this problem are available from the Microsoft Download Service (MSDL). DWXPS0.EXE is name of the file on the MSDL. After installing the printer drivers, from the File menu choose Printer Setup (ALT F, R), and select POSTSS.PRD as the printer file from the list of available files.
