this was solved in the expert list days ago. this is the last part of the thread: --- Well, this was not the problem, as all fonts was mashed together. But I managed to solve the problem myself, og just wants to tell you about it should you enconter the problem. It seems that OO does not handle printer-resolutions which are not X times X, ex. 300x300 DPI. My printer (Brother laser 1470N) has a max-resolution of 1200x600 and this caused OO to distribute 50% too little space for each character, spacey!!! Any "homegenous" resolution (I chose 600x600) works just fine! Wierd, but it solved the problem! Best regards!
