Problem

Symptoms: A customer's document is printing incorrectly. These are the steps to duplicate the problem:
1.      Create a graphics box with the Anchor Type set to Page.
2.      Set the Vertical Position and the Horizontal Position to 0 or the minimal.
3.      Choose Size, Set Both and set the width to 8.5" and the height to anything.
4.      Choose Edit.
5.      Define two columns. Set the right margin of the second column to the actual paper size. It then defaults to the maximum width allowed, depending on the printer.
6.      The margin of the second column will default to a size larger than the width of the box.

If the text in the second column is flush right or has a dot leader, the text will print and view too close together. This is more noticeable with numbers than with text, but it affects both. Solutions: A workaround to this problem is to set the Horizontal Position of the box to Margin, Full. The box will default to the column margins and will space the text in the second column correctly.
