I recently created an A3 size document in word 2000 & E-mailed it to a friend to print out for me. When he had recieved it, bits were missing or altered. The document had been created using tables and some cells had been enlarged, others had been deleted and some font settings had changed.
We are both using Win'98. Office 2000 & outlook express. I have checked all the default settings, there appears to be nothing different. Has anyone got any ideas as to why this is happening as it is a club newsletter that I am designing & information has to be correct.
Thanks in advance for any clues.

It might be that the fonts you used may not be installed on the other persons machine. Make sure that all versions are the same for you software. (Service Packs, etc.)

The cell enlargment may be attributed to the fonts, if not I'm not sure whatit could be.

Thanks Chuckles, already thought of that. The fonts are nothing more fancier than Arial & Times. Both systems are running office 2000, with windows update running regularly. I will download the SP's manually & try it though.
