- Why is it that on I don't always get WYSIWYG in WPWin 5.1?
-
- On several documents I have noticed that while most of it is WYSIWYG,
- lines that include a line-draw segment, or numerous extended
- characters, or several fonts and sizes, that the right margin does not
- line up accurately in full justification. What is more, the position
- indicator lies, suggesting that the last character is at 5.5" or some
- other, when in fact it prints at the 7.0" margin just like the rest of
- the document.
-
- Incidentally, Print Preview also confirms that the line ends at the
- appropriate 7.0" and not 5.5" as suggested in the WYSIWYG working
- screen.
-
- I am mostly irritated, as I at least had an accurate position
- indicator in WPdos 5.1, even if the screen wasn't WYSIWYG. Ugh!
-
-
- Puzzled and unhappy.

-
- ps. I didn't bother checking to see if the position indicator was
- accurate in draft mode, since if I must use draft mode, I'll switch
- back to WPdos.
