Another possibility is that apparent changes in font size aren't
Word's fault, but the printer's. If an entire line seems smaller or
larger at random, it could be that the paper-handling rollers are
getting old and stiff (like my joints <g>) or slippery with dust or
oil. Try printing the same document on a different printer of the same
model if available, or get the printer serviced.
