You are probably trying to convert the forms on a different computer
using a different monitor display resolution.  For example, your
forms were developed on a monitor using 800x600, small fonts, and your
new pc is running at 1024x768 large fonts.  Doing a switch like this
will usually cause the forms layout to get screwed up.

Try setting your new computer display to match the old one, and see
how the forms look.
