I guess I did not make it clear, or maybe I didn't even imply it BUT
The problem is really that you are changing fonts in the middle of the line.
You are going from _screen.FontName to font clause 1 to font clause 2 to
_screen.FontName and then repeating. It does not matter which font is used;
only that there are different fonts being used. It may have something to do
with font metrics and keeping track of the @ coordiates.
So ? I _should_ be able to do it _but _they_won't_let_me_ . Seriously
though, your argument about screen fonts does not apply in the case of
the printer scenario and yet the same problem occurs when directing
output in this way to the printer.
