Subject: disappearing spaces in Word documents
I'm having a funky problem with Word once again. I'm doing a short
document for my boss. Looks fine on my screen, prints out fine on my
computer. However, when my boss brings it up or prints it out from her
computer, spaces between words have gone missing. By turning on the
show-characters option, I can see that the spaces are there (besides,
they're showing up just fine in my docs). We both have Word locally
installed and are printing to the same computer. The font is Times Roman
12. I have a hard time believing this document is corrupted, because it's
quite short and I've only been working on it for a few days. Any
suggestions from the peanut gallery?
