The easiest solution would be to avoid the squeezing at all. For some reason
the stretch factor of this
text is 101% as can be seen in Format->Character->Position->ScaleWidth.
The story behind the problem with stretching is that this is very dependent on
the font on WIN. The
stretch factor is not stored explicitely, but as the ratio with an "average
char width". Due to some bad
design decision 20years ago and some million documents later this
too-direct-to-the-GDI approach is
causing very tricky problems once in a while:
When several font faces are selected in one font request (such as in
"Times;Times New Roman") and the
same font width request is used for fonts with different "average char widths"
problems are bound to
happen, especially if the reference device and the target device (PDF) resolve
the request differently.
Long words->short summary: finding the code in footnote handling where this
superfluous and
problematic stretching gets introduced and getting rid of that, is the best
solution
reassigning to OD as the footnote-code owner(?)
