Have you tried printing something out, only to find that it would print a
line, and then the end couple of words on the next line, then it wouln't
print out anything, leaving a blank after the couple of words, and carry on
the next line, doing the same thing for the rest of the document?  We, my
mother and I, have been printing things out on Lactnet for a couple of
months, and we would find this happen.  What we have been doing is cutting
and pasting the bits out of the posts, into notepad, a trick I showed my
mother.  Today we tried printing something out, and it didn't do what is
described above.  It just printed out normally.  Well, I figured out (due to
some of the other circumstances as well) that this was because the person
who typed that document didn't press the return when they were at the end of
the line, and kept on typing through, letting the programm insert its own
line breaks.  What happens when you do this also, is that you can view the
typed document on any sized window, and it will 'word wrap' the document so
that you can still read it in its wholness.  So, if you are ever typeing
something out, make sure that you don't use the return key to end a line,
just keep typing and the program will automatically enter the text on to the
next line for you.  If you do it, you will see what I mean.

Hope to see you on the Lactnet.
