[comp.sys.mac.apps] MSWord/ATM scrunches text?

glf@sppy00.UUCP (Hill) (09/18/90)

I've a simple problem which, I hope, should have a simple answer ...

I'm on a 2.5 Meg Mac Plus using system 6.0.? which is also loading the
usual, popular INITs (Boomerang, Disinfectant, Suitcase, etc) as well as
one called AlwaysFractInit.  It prints to an Apple LaserWriter IISC (about 
a year old).  The problem occurs in MSWord v4.0.

The problem is that, while everything looks dandy on the screen, some of
the text is smooshed, scrunched, or otherwise overlapping at print time.  
For example, in a standard letter, everything looks good except for a 
zip code, in which two of the numbers are missing, and the other three 
are sitting pretty much on top of each other.

Does this ring any bells with anyone?  I've tried retyping the letter, and
I've tried selecting the entire document and re-selecting the font, size
and style, but to no avail.  (Which, by the way, is another oddity ... If
an entire document is selected and, say, set to Times, why is it that when
I go right back into the Font menu (without deselecting anything) Times is
*NOT* checked?)

Thanks in advance,
                    Greg
