[mso] Tops of Superscripts truncated in Word2002

Hello All,

This started out to be a question, but as I was writing this, I found the 
solution, therefore, I offer it as a tip for anyone who may have a similar 
problem (and doesn't recognize the solution immediately).

A scientist has submitted an article in a Word document for publication in our 
club's newsletter. I am reading it in Word2002. The top parts of numbers and 
capital letters in all his superscripts are truncated. For example, the 
horizontal "flag" at the top of the number "5" is missing. Capital "T" looks 
like a lower case "L" etc.

For the most part, the article is in CG Times font style, and it also contains 
wingdings and symbols. It will be published in Arial. I can convert all the 
odd-ball characters to an Arial equivalent, but none of the font style or font 
size changes I made will eliminate the superscript truncation as described 
above.

After experimentation, I discovered that he was using some weird line spacing. 
When I converted the whole document to single-space, all the superscripts (and 
subscripts) became fully visible.

I hope this helps someone in future.

Ray Shapp
