Subject:Printing problem From:Richard Mateosian <xrm -at- EMAIL -dot- MSN -dot- COM> Date:Sun, 4 Oct 1998 12:32:49 -0700
I'm having a weird printing problem. Please reply off list, and I'll
summarize anything of general interest.
I am using Word 97 under Windows 98 on a Micron PC (300 MHz Pentium)
with an HP LaserJet 4000 printer.
I have a document with Chapter and Appendix titles in 18 pt Arial (a
TrueType font). Everything looks good on the screen, including in
print preview.
When I print, I observe the following oddity. Chapter and appendix
titles have a small (narrower than a normal space) gap about 17 to
18 centimeters from the beginning of the title text.
For example:
6 Tiler Section o f the Placement File
Appendix C Sample LTT Fi le
I'd appreciate any insight anyone can offer.
Thanks. ...RM
