Problem

Symptoms: A customer has a merge document that merges a secondary address list to a letter. The letter has a header with two user boxes in it. Below the second box there is a line of text, and tabs are used to move the text over. The first letter is the only one that makes this text adjustment with the tabs and prints correctly. The rest of the letters print incorrectly, by forcing the line down to the next line. Solutions: In the header, there is a 12pt font change after 4 tab codes, and then a line of text. In the document, there is a 10pt font change after the header. After the merge, a Deletable Soft Return code [DSRt] was inserted after the 4 Tab codes, causing the 12pt font code and the line of text to print on the next line. The problem can be corrected by removing the tabs and using a left/right margin code before the font change code. This allows the line of text to stay at the same position on every page after merging.
