Is there a way to keep the format of the report when printing?

I am using text boxes in a master detail report. The report looks great on the screen but when it is printed, my text is all over the place. HELP.
 
Does the printer have the fonts for what you are choosing on the screen? Have you tried printing to another printer to see if it looks ok?

Yes to all of the above.

I think its in the report formatting. Could there be something I'm missing?
 
Are you doing anything special with VBA in the formating?

Ok, let me back up. What does all over the place mean? Is it still within the text box? Can you put a border on the text box to see if it is within it's confins. Does it overlap other text boxes?

Sorry, you problem is odd that I provokes me to add odd questions.
