Thanks to the persistent research and trial-and-error efforts of Brad H.,
who experienced the same problem of weird font with jammed-together
characters in Entourage, the solution to the problem has been found.
The problem was not resolved by removing Entourage and other Microsoft
preferences, as I attempted to do. Nor was it resolved by un-installing
everything in Office X and re-installing everything from the CD and
subsequent updates, as was suggested in this newsgroup. Nor was it solved
in creating a new identity as another suggested. Even a call to Microsoft
Tech Support by Brad H. stumped the experts there.
Brad's solution, which works for me, too, is:
Open System Preferences. Click on General Preferences. Then go down to
bottom to Font Smoothing Style. Set ³turn off font smoothing² button for
___ and smaller at ³eight.²
