That's another new one to me. Does it do this with ALL fonts? How bout if you print an email or print from Excel? Try a different font and printing from some other programs and let us know what happens And welcome to the group.

I have installed Windows 2000 and Office XP in my computer. Every thing using WinWord went fine untill printing the document. When I printed it, I noticed between every two letters a small arc joining them. Notepad prints fine even Acrobat Reader. The printer I have is Fujitsu DL 3400 dot matrix. Why this happens with Word?
