XCLN: Font Changes May Truncate Data

ID: Q146027

The information in this article applies to:

Microsoft Exchange Windows 95/98 client, versions 4.0, 5.0
Microsoft Exchange Windows 3.x client, versions 4.0, 5.0
Microsoft Exchange Windows NT client, versions 4.0, 5.0

SUMMARY

When selecting and changing fonts while in the Microsoft Exchange client, message data may seem to disappear in a very narrow set of circumstances.

MORE INFORMATION

When a user highlights information and then selects the Footlight MT Light font having first bold-faced the data, the last character of the data seem to disappear.

This is a problem with the way that this font is reporting its particular metrics back to Microsoft Windows. If the user chooses another font, then the data reappears even if new text has been added.

This is only a problem when the text has first been bold-faced. In the instance where the font choice is merely changed, the problem does not occur.
