It seems that unless you have the same set of True Type fonts installed and the same set of default values in both your normal.dot template and your winword6.ini files then there may be significant variations between what you see on the screen (and what you can print) and what the author apparently intended. I'd like to request that documents not be distributed in this format in the future unless these problems can be resolved. What I've received in rtf format so far is not particularly useful and I await paper versions. Dave -- David J.
