Fonts change Mysteriously Joel Chip 11/15/2008 5:10:00 PM In word I highlite and change the size of the font of a sentence to over 12 and also change the color to Blue. Then If I simply scroll the page up to where the sentence disappears under the tool bar it changes it to red! However, the color stated on the font is still blue and so is the description in the style tab as well. However, If I keep the font at 12 or under this does not happen! Any ideas??

Re: Fonts change Mysteriously Joel Chip 11/18/2008 8:03:02 PM Hi Stefan, thanks for replying. It happens in every word doc I try it in. I thought I stated previously that I have Windows XP Home Edition with Office 2003 loaded into my Mac. It is here that I am having this issue.

Hi Joel, Just to troubleshoot this mysterious issue: If you go into the misbehaving text and look in "Format > Font", Character spacing tab, what do you see under Kerning? > However, If I keep the font at 12 or under this does not happen! In case the font currently isn't kerned at 12 pt or below, does the buggy behaviour change if you uncheck the kerning (or set a large font size such as 72 pt)? Greetings, Klaus

Re: Fonts change Mysteriously Joel Chip 11/24/2008 7:40:05 PM Hi Klaus, thanks for the try. The Kearning was not checked but it made no difference when I saved the Kearning to 72. Any other thoughts? I am wondering what if I updated the XP Home Edition to the XP Pro, do you think that will make a difference? Also, do you feel it is a Windows problem or the Mac problem?
