Well, since nobody else has answered this one, let me take a stab at it. Have you checked the font settings in the "Print setup" dialog? Mine by default is set to Courier New (ugh) 10-point font. It's possible that your font file is corrupted, so you might try switching to a different typeface and seeing what happens.
I'm mystified about why reprinting works, though. -Mark Wieder Using The Bat! v1.60h on Windows 2000 5.0 Build 2195 Service Pack 2 ________________________________________________________ Current version is 1.61 | "Using TBUDL" information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
