Ok whirlers, this is a new one on me: my colleague is trying to print a manual
that came with a new software package as a PDF. (let's not get into why this
is/is not a heinous corporate practice, ok?)
When she prints, all the spaces are taken out soallthewordsruntogetherlikethis.
It's doubly weird, because the PDF looks fine online and prints fine from *my*
computer. We use the same network printer and the same type of PC. Is this a
printer driver issue?
All ideas welcome. You can respond directly to me or to my colleague:

Thanks so much for your insight into this!
