Message-ID: <1350@vidiot.UUCP> Date: 4 Feb 91 21:34:23 GMT Reply-To: brown@vidiot.UUCP (Vidiot) Organization: Vidiot's Hangout Lines: 24 I just noticed something last night that has been going on for a while. First the vital facts: ISC 2.0.2 Unix ISC Text Processing - ditroff 2.0 compatable I have a long disclaimer paragraph in my ST:TNG program guide and noticed that the first line of the text is printed (PostScript) about an en's character worth short of the right margin. The only thing different in the line is a \f3Star Trek\f1. If I don't bold or italize it, then the line length comes out ok. If I bold some text that appears in the second line, the right margin is correct. Yes, I do have adjust turned on. This is really strange. Has anyone else seen this problem? Oh, the font I am using is New Century Schoolbook, but I tried it with Times- Roman and it didn't make a difference. -- harvard\ att!nicmad\ spool.cs.wisc.edu!astroatc!vidiot!brown Vidiot ucbvax!uwvax..........!astroatc!vidiot!brown rutgers/ decvax!nicmad/ INTERNET:vidiot!brown%astroatc@spool.cs.wisc.edu
