The main problem is printer drivers. In order for a document to look the 
same on two different printers they need to be using the same drivers and 
the author must have used fonts the other machine is going to have.
   Printer drivers have the most effect. It can be a lot different just on 
two equivalent machines if they are set to different screen resolutions of 
dpi, etc. etc..
  You might try .RTF and see if that allows them to become a little more 
similar, but it's hard to get them to look the same. They may or may not 
print properly too, dependin gon the drivers in each machine. Page Preview 
uses the installed drivers to show what the page will look like when it is 
printed, BTW.
