Weird printing problem with OracleReports

Hi everyone,

I've encountered a weird problem with OracleReports 2.5.5.2.7 on Chinese Windows 95 with Service Pak 1

Some reports cannot print the "Kai" Chinese fonts of point size 12 properly. Some paragraphs are simply blank when printed. Sometimes the headings are OK but the body disappears. This problem also occurs in the print preview mode.

The strange thing is that if I switch to use point size 11, 13 or any other font sizes, the problem disappears. Moreover, it also works well with all other font types. Unfortunately, the point 12 "Kai" font is exactly what my users need.

I've also tried recreating the report from scratch and sometimes this will solve the problem but sometimes not.

The "Kai" font comes with Chinese Windows 95 and Word, Excel, etc works well with it for all font sizes.

This leaves me wondering if this is a Win 95 problem or a OracleReport problem. Could someone shed some light on what might be the cause?

Thanks in advance.
