SUMMARY
When task swapping Bitstream Facelift version 1.0 through MS-DOS Shell, the screen will blank and the system will hang if the Facelift advanced installation options are not set correctly.

Use the Bitstream Facelift FLSETUP.EXE program to ensure that the advanced options are set correctly.

This information applies to Microsoft MS-DOS version 5.0.



MORE INFORMATION
Bitstream Facelift is a screen/printer font package designed to work with WordPerfect versions 5.0 and 5.1.

When Facelift is executed through Shell with the Task Swapper active, it will work properly. When the program is swapped from memory to disk the monitor blanks and the system hangs.

To adjust the Facelift advanced options, do the following:

 Use the FLSETUP.EXE program that comes with the Facelift package. It will be in the Facelift directory or on Facelift Utility Disk 1. From the disk or directory containing the file FLSETUP.EXE, type the following command:

flsetup /a

This will execute the Advanced Installation Options for Facelift.  The following is a list of Options/Settings that will work correctly with Shell:   Field                              Setting -                             ---
