Working in Jaguar on my 12" iBook.
I just made an acrobat .pdf file from some chapters of a book I'm
writing to send to consultants. After making it, I took a look and was
surprised to see that the last word on some long lines was incomplete.
The final letter would be broken, so, for instance, an "m" might appear
to be an "n".
This happened throughout the manuscript--averaging one line per page
wherever the line had stretched out. I was using Courier type and now
wonder if that could have something to do with it because it is
monospaced, doesn't kern like "regular" fonts do?
This anomaly surprised me.
