Re: bunched up words ???

Maybe her monitor is tilted and they've all slid down to the one side?
(I'm sorry - I just had to suggest that.)

Check the spacing between letters. Format|Font|Character Spacing.

was sliding.

A lot of users are reporting this problem, and it seems to be traceable to a
printer driver problem. Some users report that a temporary solution is to
open the Print dialog and switch to a different printer and then back.
Office MVP Bob Buckland has also suggested other ideas in a thread on this
subject in microsoft.public.word.application.errors.

So it's not a crooked monitor or a tipsy desk? Darn!

Hi Philip,

Hi Lino,

Word 2003? It's apparently a glitch that causes
Word to lose track of the printer it's supposed to be
using.

Going to File=>Print and
changing the printer to another one (and back)
will often clear it temporarily.

If that works please let us know what happens if you
-Set Word to use the correct printer
-Close Word, cleanup and delete all left over
Word temp files using Start=>Search and the
search string of
~$*.*;*.tmp

-Restart Word and open the same document.

Do you have the MS Remove Hidden(personal) Data
add-in installed or another Addin?
