Changing the view helped, but I also discovered that the right margin
(abutting the column line) for that particular section wasn't set properly.
Moving it to the left solved the problem.

This is a display issue (especially noticeable if you have text boundaries
displayed). If you increase the zoom, you'll probably be able to see all the
text, which you should also be able to see in Print Preview.

In this situation, I have a two column page, and I'm still typing text in
the
first column. In some sentences, the last letter of the last word on a
line
"fades" (i.e. half of the letter disappears instead of the word wrapping
to
the next line). There must be a problem in how the two columns are set
up-- a
margin perhaps-- but I can't find the solution in the usual support areas.
Thanks.
