Greetings I am having a problem using Arial Narrow in 8 point, on Windoze Everything works fine on Mac, but when I open up the structure on Windows, anything in Arial Narrow 8pt is all screwed up. By which I mean that the leading is all wrong and it doesn't really look like Arial Narrow. If I switch to 9 or 7 point everything looks fine. Bold & italic both exhibit the same issue. This is happening on more than one Windows machine so it is not a specific glitch on one computer. I have tried both with and without style sheets, same issue. Other fonts appear to work ok, it's just Arial Narrow which is duff. The line spacing appears to be too great - if I switch to Arial 8 the block of text takes up less room that the block in Arial Narrow, which obviously can't be right as there are more words per line - but the spacing between the lines with Arial Narrow is too much. Has anyone seen this before? Any ideas? Other than using a different font? TIA -- -- James Knight Norwich, UK james@...(Continue reading)
