Letter spacing problem
I'm noticing the spacing between some letters in my documents is not really
evenly balanced. I do not recall seeing this in Word 97. I'm now using 2000. Any suggestions much appreciated. thanks |

May be a sign that you either need to update your graphics driver or printer
driver. The printer driver is the most usual problem. -- Terry Farrell - Word MVP http://word.mvps.org/ "Dan Kennedy" wrote in message ... : I'm noticing the spacing between some letters in my documents is not really : evenly balanced. : I do not recall seeing this in Word 97.

Update one (the printer) and if it doesn't work, update the other. You
should make a point of keeping your drivers up to date anyway: the manufacturers don't keep releasing new drivers for their own good health!

Word interrogates the printer driver for its parameters to work out how to
lay out a document to suit the printer. If the printer driver is corrupt or badly written, then BOTH THE PRINTED OUTPUT AND SCREEEN DISPLAY will be wrong. The screen will display what is printed: that's is what is meant by Print Preview.
