In Word 2000 the ARIAL font is corrupt in that the chacters are not evenly
spaced.
If I open the same document in Wordpad the font is OK as it is in Excel. If
I open the document on another computer using word it is OK.
I upgraded to Office 2003 and the font characters are still unevenly spaced.
When I print the font it is unevenly spaced.
I can't shoe an example beciause anyone else viewing the font from anywhere
except my copy of word has no problems.
Anyone have any ideas?
