> Hello All,
> 
> I'm having problems with what appears to be a software issue in Ubuntu when I attempt to print spreadsheets using a number of different printers.   Note the attached illustration shows misalignment where the first digit of the numbers are printing under the dollar sign.  This happens when printing any spreadsheet; regardless of generated online or internally.  
> For example, when you click on a pdf file to print (or a spreadsheet generated online), the page appears aligned correctly.  Then when you click file, print and print preview, the page appears misaligned with the first character (of most numbers with a dollar sign) appearing as an overtype behind the dollar sign.  If you print a spreadsheet without viewing print preview, the same errors occur.  This applies whether a printer is actually connected or not and regardless of which printer is selected.
> Has anyone experienced this?  If so, anything I can do to remedy the situation would be greatly appreciated.
