[Quoted] I'm trying to use reports 3 to generate a form letter where the bulk of the text is a single text item with embedded data elements along these lines:



Dear: &<expletive>er,

This is to inform you that your &<body_part> is scheduled to be &<torture_method> if payment is not received by &<due_date>....


The problem is that the right hand side of the text in this box shows up fine [Quoted] in preview, but gets chopped off when it gets sent to the printer - for some [Quoted] reason the printer seems to be interpreting th font size differently...

The font is plain old Times New Roman. The boundaries of the text box are well within the printer's printable area. I've tried justification of 'left', 'start', and 'flush', all with the same results.

Is there some workaround for this?
