Hi Andy, Seen this type of thing quite often in the forum so it is one of the first to check. I should have checked this since I've seen it before. However, I *am* surprised that there is no visible indication that the font wasn't present on my computer. I'd say that is a bug, or at least a

Hi Tim, Thanks for looking at this. Yeah, you're right, I don't even *like* CG Omega :-( Unfortunately the editor does. The problem wasn't that I couldn't make it fit, but that it was different on the two PC's. The font not being on my PC makes it all understandable now though. Regards Mark

Hi. I had this same thing. The document font was arial on both machines. But I found the arial fonts were not the same. I copied the arial font from the first machine to the second machine (deleting and replacing the font) and the layout was then the same. steve On 29/03/11 7:13 AM, Mark

Hi Jay, When I have seen two pages print, one being blank, is when I have extra lines below the text. Thanks for the thought. I'm (insanely) careful about extra blanks, either lines or spaces, particularly when things start going wrong. So no, this isn't the thing in this case. It's part

Hi Tim, Ok, YHM. It's actually a renewal letter for a magazine, so it is a form letter, mailmerged in with the renewal list, which is why I could be bothered to ask the question. If it was just one page I'd probably just live with it. This issue we have just over a hundred renewals though,

Hi Andy, First are the fonts used on both computers? Good thought! It turns out, when I look closer, the document is a bit of a mish-mash of fonts and font styles. I actually couldn't find one of the (two) fonts on my own machine. Would LO substitute silently? Surely it should complain if
