It might take more than a monospaced font. It might be impossible. For one thing, you have to stop Word from converting spaces to tabs -- it does this automatically when loading a text-only file, unless you change a setting under Options or some such menu. It also occasionally removes blank lines. They simply disappear, for no reason I can ascertain. Word is designed to, let us say, encourage you to use only MS file formats. Word is supposed to be able to read other word processors' files, but strange things happen when it does this. In DOS WordPerfect I can create a file with tab stops every 75 pixels on my printer so everything lines up beautifully; Word, which is installed for the same printer, will open the file all right, but the tabs stops become irregular and nothing lines up right. Using Word is asking for trouble. Dan Strychalski -- dski at cameonet cameo com tw ("twx" is for the 'bots)
