      When I print a document, whether to a standard printer or to a pdf, the result is not WYSIWYG. Specifically, columns that are lined up using tabs on the screen are not lined up when printed. I’m using an Arial 10 font and a tab setting of 8. Is there a printer setting that I need to change?

        Did you set the WYSIWYG option in Settings->Preferences->Print ?
        And I would use a monospaced font.

        Cheers

          Yes, I have it set to WYSIWYG, but I think that refers only to color options, not font spacing. As you suggest, a monospace font may be the best workaround.
