First, copy the font files from the distribution to the directory used for storing downloadable fonts. Refer to the
proof sheets for the name of each font file. A typical directory path might be
C:\WP51\FONTS

the correct font from the "Change Base Font" option without being concerned about font point size or style.

either the \Key{Exit} or \Key{Esc} key to back out of a prompt or go back a screen.
Make a backup copy of the master printer file:
C:> COPY WPHP1.ALL WPHP1.OLD
Edit the original file with the printer utility:
