I have a standard summary printout in list mode and in preview the horizontal lines are not parallel! Of course it looks terrible when printing.... anyone seen this before?

When drawing lines, use the Shift key to constrain them to be horizontal or vertical.

I appreciate your humor... these lines are in fact dead horizontal... the preview distorts them... and unfortunately prints them crooked too.

Yes, I've seen it before. I had not used the shift key and ended up with a sloping line which I fixed (= made horizontal) manually. It looked fine but the trouble was it hadn't taken and looked sloping in both Preview and print. I deleted it and re-entered the line using the shift key.

"I appreciate your humor... "

I'm not being humorous.

Well, my fault I guess I should be more descriptive.

The layout is a subsummary layout including two sub totals...

the lines above the first subtotal are horizontal, the lines above the 2nd subtotal (which are the same lines as the top in layout mode but repeated) slope down on the right side of the page.

Does that clarify... the same lines on the layout, preview as straight, and crooked.

Why don't you post a file showing the problem.

After much ado, I deleted the layout and rebuilt it and it works,,, I tried deleing the contents but that didnt work.

Thanks.
