Problem

Symptoms: The customer has a QMS PS 2200 printer. He is using a Helvetica 8pt font in a table. The first and second cells contain the same eight lines of text. The second cell, however, also contains a degree symbol (compose character) as the first character in the cell. The degree symbol seems to affect the line height, because line eight in cell one is lower than line eight in cell two. If the customer deletes the degree symbol in the second cell, the two corresponding lines line up perfectly. This problem shows up in View Document as well as in the printout.

The problem only occurs when a PostScript printer is selected. The operator couldn't duplicate the problem on the HP LaserJet Series II but could duplicate it on the Qume ScripTEN. Solutions: This problem may not be as noticeable with other fonts although it will still occur. As a workaround the customer may want to try a different font.
