WordStar for Windows
If you have been running WordStar for Windows with Windows version 3.0, you might see some differences when you run this application with Windows version 3.1. For example, some elements of the WordStar screen might not be displayed the same as they were in Windows version 3.0.

Windows version 3.1 uses descriptive printer-model names for printer drivers. Because WordStar does not recognize the new names, you need to update your WordStar templates. Do this by opening a template, selecting the printer you are using, and then saving the new information in the template.
