K.D,

I think the difference may be the fact that you used a Proportional spaced font (like Ariel or Tahoma or Calabri (windows fonts)... instead of a mono-spaced font like (Courier New).  When you use a mono-spaced font... each character (including spaces) are assigned the same amount of distance across the line.  A .  or period and the uppercase letter H both take up the same amout of space."

Trev,

I know the resulting post results in a proportional font like Ariel and appears to be about 10 pt, but the original Word Doc was Courier New in 9 pt.  

Following are examples.

Following typed in Word, copy and paste to M*

This line in original Word Doc is Courier New 9 point.
 
This line in original Word Doc is Courier New 9 point BOLD.

This Line in original Word Doc  is Arial Bold 9 point.

This line in original Word Doc  is Arial  Bold 12 point.

The difference seems to be Mozilla Firefox.........

Thanks for your time and input......

K.D.
