Hi,
I have a problem printing underscores on Fuji-Xerox Document Centre printers with TextPad 4.7.3.
I use Courier or Courier New- it makes no difference. Underscores, and indeed the tails of characters like p and j print fine unless the line below has tall characters (t, i, j etc) in. In that circumstances the underscores and tails are lost- perhaps hidden behind a border of whitespace above the line below.
Word and Notepad print the same text (programming code) with underscores and tails all visible. Notepad uses marginally more paper to print the same amount of code- it seems to me that textpad is cramming lines together too tightly.
I'm not using the Double Space option in printing (please don't tell me to).
Hope to hear of an easy resolution...

Thanks again.
From the Preferences; Document Classes; <doc type>; Font, with Scope set to Both I chose Courier which has a printer symbol next to it. Apply, OK, then print and the problem remains the same. Where there is a line below, underscores and tails are not printed. Underscores and tails are printed in portions of lines where the line below has no character directly below the tail.
I could keep trying different fonts. For my purposes, only monospaced fonts are useful (and your dialog doesn't allow me to filter for monospaced fonts- a useful and very easy addition, if I may suggest it?) but there are hundreds listed. And Textpad doesn't (probably can't) show me a sample of what printer fonts will look like in the dialog.
