In all text objects and field headings in the Design and Preview tabs, Arial font displays every letter on top of each other. Very strange problem.

Happens in every old report I open and new reports.
Happens no matter what font size.

Doesn't happen when I'm editing the text.
Doesn't happen for results retrieved from the database, but does happen for text objects in the details section.
Doesn't happen for fonts besides Arial.
Doesn't happen when I export to Excel, .pdf or .rtf.
Doesn't happen in other applications.

The only thing I've tried is restarting, which didn't work.
 
SOunds like you've got a virus. I don't know of any Crystal setting that would do that.
