= SUMMARY =

By default, Microsoft Works for MS-DOS displays text lines on the screen as they will appear when printed. Because Works displays all text as if it is formatted with a 10-characters-per-inch font, text formatted with a proportional or small font will often extend beyond the width of the screen to show the actual point at which a line of text will break when printed.

To view a Word Processor document without the need for horizontal scrolling, which the default mode creates, the Options Wrap For Screen command can be used to modify the line length of text in a file to fit within page margins and indents displayed on your screen. This command displays text within the margins and indents of the screen ruler, but it does not affect line breaks when the file is printed.
