Justified text is leaving empty space when printed

June 23, 200520 yr

I have come across a problem that Filemaker support have aknowledged to be a bug. If you have large blocks of text (mine are all max. one page long) with merged fields and you justify the text left and right (block), when printing FMP7 leaves out random pieces of text. This does not happen when text is justified left only. I have been in touch with FM support and they said that this can occur with some fonts. I'm using Times New Roman and have tried other fonts that give the same result. The only font I have tried that does not have this problem is Courier. I have has to go through dozens of layouts and reformat. I also get a strange thing when leaving the block of text, for approx .5 sec the text is "reshuffled" on screen. Has anyone come across this problem?
