Font Sizes too big on printouts

[bearyblue]

hey, i'm back. this time with a problem.

i've done some word processing in OpenOffice.org Writer and found that the font sizes are bigger than MS Word counterparts. Specifically, Times New Roman.

i have verified this when i printed out a document that has TNR 12 font. the font size in the printout came out TNR size 14. also, i sent a classmate of mine a title page for our project. in my system, it consumed only a page. but in hers, it took two.

now, can anyone suggest a proper configuration for my system so that i can make sure of the font sizes of the printouts?

just in case it would help, i'm using:
OpenOffice.org 2.0.2
HP Deskjet 3325 - HP LIP 1.6.6a

Re: Font Sizes too big on printouts

I don't know if this is related to your problem, but I found that the font sizes were increased from what I had originally set, when I tried to edit files with Oo.o 2 that I had written and saved in Oo.o 1. I had to go through the files in question and reset the font sizes. After that the files were resaved in Oo.o2 format and the problem did not recur.
