I have a user that has the ends of words cutoff inside Excel cells or Word table cells. This computer is setup identically to the rest of the office and is the only computer that has the problem. The problem occurs regardless of who is logged in.All of the fonts have been replaced with the original fonts from the Windows XP disk. I've looked in the Usenet groups and in MS Technet and KB with no luck finding a problem like this. Any suggestions that anyone has would be greatly appreciated.

Have you changes the size of their column, by double clicking on the column in the header?

Unlikely, but possible answer:
Does the user have a desktop printer? For that machine only? Try deleting and reinstalling the driver.

We found the solution. Apparently, an app overwrote some of the fonts. These app specific fonts were the problem. When we copied all of the fonts from the original XP disk, everything returned to normal.
