Maybe you could fudge those by adding some arbitrary extra space and not promising to support weird fonts. That would be cool with me, depending on cost of the product as shareware. The doc for version 1.13 says it's $30.

It should be easy for you to customize your copy if you like by throwing a method call into the big loop at the end of the ReportForm method that places the objects into Word.

That's a neat idea, Bret. And may be even add an actual code, but just comment it for lazers, like me :) So all we would have to do, just uncomment it.
If it's not broken, fix it until it is.
