Subject:Unique word problem - can anyone help? From:Kathy Jacobs <jacobskl -at- jacobs -dot- coxatwork -dot- com> To:"TECHWR-L" <techwr-l -at- lists -dot- raycomm -dot- com> Date:Thu, 19 Apr 2001 12:05:50 -0700
I am hoping that one of you will be able to help me out. I had a call
this morning from a client who has a situation I have never seen
before. I am hoping that in your experience you might have come across
not only the problem, but the solution.
Reported problem: "Suddenly" this morning, the results of underlining
text on his computer changed. He reports that the underline used to run
below the descenders, and now runs through them. We checked various
fonts, all now run through the descenders instead of underneath. It
shows the same on both the printer and the screen.
As I have never seen an underline run below the descenders, I was not
able to help him. Have you ever seen this, and do you know any way he
can get them back the way they were (below the descenders)?
I appreciate any help you can provide. I will (of course) give you
credit when reporting any answer you have.
Thank you!
