Font type & size changing randomly

[fwatanabe]

Hi All,

I was wondering if anyone else has seen this behaviour: I find that the font typeface and sizes have been changing randomly (so it seems) in my reports. I set all of my fonts to Arial Western, and the next time I open the report, I find some fields are Helvetica, some are Arial Central European, and a lot of the font sizes have changed.

For example, I have a title that I set to Arial Western 16. It is now Arial Central European 14.5 (why 14.5??)

I haven't found an exact pattern yet, but it seems to happen most often to fields that are bolded. I am using Crystal 8 and Windows 2000.

I have also experienced this bizarre phenomenon using CR 8.5 and win2000 and for me, it happens with any fields, bolded or not. Fields also appear to get off-line on their own (a very big deal in the report writing I do). We have noticed that if multiple developers maintain reports, this behaviour is worse. X-)

Check your font folder. You might have corrupted font files.
