Thanks! Would this also occur on the screen vs. when it prints?

This seems to happen when Word temporarily loses track of the printer
driver. Some users report that the problem is cleared by opening the Print
dialog, changing the selected printer, changing back to the desired one, and
clicking Close.

Occasionally, I'll open up a previous Word document and all of the
characters/text are squooshed together on top of one another. The only
way I
can figure out to correct it is to change the character spacing from 100%
to
101%, but I shouldn't have to do that, especially for each and every
document
that it happens to. What's happening with the documents?
