Richard,

The inconsistency I refer to is the problems with text formatted in a 
field versus that done in the content pane and versus that done in the 
text formatting pane. They all have different results and are 
unpredictable at best. Then if I send it to Windows it gets even worse.

It is just frustrating to have them all act differently that's all.
