dude! read it again. wait, i'll break it down into sanders-sized bites. ;^)
'ms word uses the industry standard - html/css' (subject)
'industry standard' is *interpreted* by individual browsers (common
knowledge)
word uses same lib as ie, so the same problem exists in reliability of
output - ms word !> pdf (conclusion)
a *true* standard output is needed so reports always look the same no matter
what pc it is viewed or printed from (the original question being asked)
your idea of 'advancing' the conversation has led us back to the question.
nothing wrong with that unless you fail to pick up any useful information on
the journey...which is the case since you have not provided any.
btw, i have the distinct impression that there are many things of which you
are unaware.
