SYMPTOMS
If you format a line of text or a word as underlined and you have applied two or more different font sizes, the text looks fine on the screen, but the increased font size causes a thicker underline to be printed.



STATUS
This behavior is by design. As the font size increases, the size of the character formatting increases. Since the underline format is a character format, the underline lines will increase proportionally.
