Default Merge field display error

I'm doing some merges with over 300 documents and sometimes a few of them
(1-10) will do something really weird. All of the characters pile up in the
merge fields. It looks similar to what used to happen with old dot matrix
printers when the carriage would get stuck and print the entire in the space
of one character.

It's pretty rare so I haven't seen it enough times to notice any patterns.
But it's extremely annoying since I'll have to run 200-300 letter merge over
again.

Has anyone else ever experienced this?
