No. I assume this is the dBASE report object. What happens if you reduce the fontSize of the control by one point? You say it's solved by centering the field (the text control?) on the report.    It's a little difficult to see why that would have an effect, nor why centering the alignment within the text control would have such an effect. Have you experimented with wrap? It's possible that the the length allocated for the text within the control is simply too little when the letters being printed have an over-large pitch, for example lots of M or W characters.
