I haven't seen it, but here is his report:

In addition, I now find that I cannot set the font of the fields
manually to any font on my Windows 98 machine. No matter what I choose,
the font becomes tiny, unreadable, sans-serif something displayed at
about 8 point with wacky word wrap and half inch gaps between words
where the spaces are.
There is no "Times" font on my Windows machine, but if set it to "Times"
manually in the message box, it displays just like on the Mac and looks
fine (only it doesn't on the client's machines.) If I set it to "Times
Roman" from the font menu it goes screwy with the tiny sans-serif font.
Looks like something corrupted to me.
