Incorrect Printing with Times Font on NEC P5200/5300

5.00 5.50

MS-DOS

= SUMMARY =

When using the Times font in size 10 or 15 on the NEC P5200 or P5300 with the NECP5200.PRD printer driver, incorrect spacing, incorrect justification, and double-underlining may occur.

This is due to a round-off error in Word’s calculation for character spacing.

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Word version 5.00.

This problem was corrected in Word version 5.50 with the printer driver P520055.PRD. This printer driver is not installed automatically through Setup when you are installing an NEC P5200. You will need to copy the compressed file from the Printer 1 disk and decompress it manually. For instructions on manually decompressing a file, refer to page 67 of the “Getting Started” pamphlet included with your Word 5.50 package.
