Like my backscript. I'll trade you a working field for a preOpenCard 
handler.

Don't think so, or somebody would have said by now. :) I haven't a clue 
why it's doing that. My gut says it's something about fonts, but I have 
no real evidence. But HC used Geneva and Rev doesn't, and HC used 
bitmapped fonts (which print like you're describing) and Rev doesn't, 
and...I don't know. Something in there sounds like the reason.

I wonder what would happen if you changed the font on a "bad" field, 
saved the stack, and then changed it back. Maybe that would cause Rev to 
re-examine the font rendering.

Magic.
