I was making some overhead transparencies on my Mac (SE, System 6.0.2, 1
Meg., ImageWriter II) and formatted them in Times, 24 point.  When I got
them all formatted like I wanted, I went to my 'local' Apple dealer (50
miles away, but that's another story) to print them on a laser printer. 
The 24 point Times on the SE/30 (boy is it fast!) at the dealer was
bigger than my 24 point Times, so all my formatting was screwed up.  The
dealer wasn't sure what was going on.  He did mention the need to use
'tall adjusted' when preparing a document for eventual laser printing,
but he didn't think that explained the difference.

The printer was a LaserWriter IINTX, and both computers were running
Word 3.

So, why was Times not Times?
