= SUMMARY =

To get character shading on the Hewlett-Packard (HP) LaserJet III, specify a PRD file that supports the HP LaserJet III in the Print Options “printer:” field and specify LaserJet III in the “model:” field. Then choose Character from the Format menu, select the “font color:” field, and press F1 for a list of available choices.

The HP series II and HP series IID model descriptions do not support character shading. Only drivers updated with the HP LaserJet III model block will provide this feature.

The following are five different levels of character shading available:

Black Dark Medium Light White

Black is the default font color for all fonts. White shows up only if it is positioned over a dark area; it will act as an eraser.

The following are the levels of character shading available with Word 5.50 and the HP LaserJet III:

Black Dark Medium Light White Pattern 1 Pattern 2 Pattern 3
