<FONT FACE="Verdana, Helvetica, Arial"><SPAN STYLE='font-size:12.0px'>I have heard of one other person who went down the ‘character width’ route, it sounded very impressive. I suspect this is the only really sound way to go.<BR>
<BR>
I’ve had exactly the same problem – I partially solved it by importing the data into Filemaker, doing various calculations on the word lengths (but NOT taking varying letter widths into account, I felt life was too short) and letting Filemaker split the lines for me.<BR>
<BR>
I still had to do quite a few lines manually, but 70-80% of them were right, which was a lot better than 0%.<BR>
<BR>
Aha, I’ve found the post from the man who did this. He actually uses the font metrics data, which is about where I gave up reading. But it sounds as if it works well, and if you’re doing a lot of it, then the time spent getting it set up would be well worth while.<BR>
