Problem

Symptoms: The customer is having problems with her tabs; her tabs are not accurate. If the customer sets a Left tab at 5.5 and then a Right tab at 6.2, using a Courier 10cpi font, the Right Align tab will over print the Left Align tab with only 6 characters between them. This is an example of what she is doing: she types (L)$45,678®; however, this is what shows, (L)45,343®. The dollar sign does not show on the screen and is being over printed. Solutions: The tabs are overlapping. If a tab stop is within one space (space size being dependent upon the font), then the text will overlap with a Left and Right tab directly next to each other. The solution is to go to a smaller font or create the tabs one space further apart.
