SUMMARY

WordPerfect Technical Support has confirmed that if you switch from the Windows Printing System (WPS) print driver to another Hewlett- Packard (HP) Windows printer driver within WordPerfect for Windows version 5.2, the TrueType fonts in your current document may change.

MORE INFORMATION

This situation can occur when you change any Windows printer driver. WordPerfect for Windows, as well as other Windows-based applications, maintains a table of available fonts. When you change to another printer driver, the fonts may be inappropriately mapped to a similar font, either a TrueType font or a printer-resident font. This process is entirely handled by the specific application.

For more information, call WordPerfect Laser Printing Technical Support.
