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.

I never heard of that issue. Maybe the TTF vs. OTF fonts would make a
difference, but I use TTF for all my fonts if I have it in that format.
I do make sure that any of my systems have the same list of fonts
installed.
Actually, I remember now that I did see two different "authors" listed
in some of my Arial fonts descriptions while viewing them in a font
viewer package. Maybe there is "different" Arial fonts but called the
same thing. After collecting over 100,000 fonts I have found that most
san-serif and serif fonts are so close together, I tend to use/install 1
or 2 san-serif fonts and 1 or 2 serif fonts. The rest are all
"specialty fonts".
Also, as another email asked, if there are two different printers in the
mix, they could be printing the fonts a little differently if they have
built in Arial and it is set to substitute their Arial for the TTF/OTF font.
