According to contributor Bob Buckland: "It's a bug that somehow seems to
have Word misreading temporary files related to the printer currently in
use. You can usually 'unscramble' the display from File=Print and switch
to the printer properties or to another printer then your normal one, or
close Word and delete all files found on Start=Search and looking for
~$*.*;*.tmp as the name string then restarting Word." See also

When I send a job to print, the font (Times Roman 12 True Type)
bunches up and is not readable. If I remembered to save the document
before printing I can close Word, reopen the file and it is fine
However if I did not save I have to select all and change the font to
Aria. I can read the file, then I save the document, close Word,
reopen and change the font back to Times Roman and the document is
fine.
What causes this ... this seems to be happening more frequently with
other co-workers.
