You could put a table cell inside a text box and remove the borders from
the
table cell, and then type your text into the table cell. This would keep
the
text sufficiently far away from the textbox border so that it doesn't
appear
cropped.

I understand what you are saying but the proximity of the text to the text
box border is not a factor. If I increase the text box internal margain it
just pushes the text further into the text box, but the issue of the edge of
the text being cut off is unaffected. It is just cut off further away from
the border.

Thanks

I have Word 97. I was putting a flyer together using Text Boxes and ran
into
a problem. When using fully justified text in a text box with fonts that
are
italicized or naturally have some letters that lean to the right (like
"f")
a small amount of text is cut off on the right side margin only. Just
enough
to make the right edge look weird. Maybe the rightmost 10% of a letter.
With
upright block fonts, there is no impact... with italicized fonts, every
letter is affected.

I have played with the text box margins but that only pushed the margin
away
from the text box edge, it had no affect on this issue, though.

Any suggestions?? Thanks, Lar
