Hi Experts,

Posting again Sorry for your inconvenient

I'm facing strange issue like extending values between characters as well as words for some orders.

Please refer the screenshot below.

I have applied below Paragraph format properties:

Alignment : Left justified

Left margin : 1.00 MM

Line spacing : 1.00 LN

Page Protection : X

Font : HELVE

Size : 10

Please suggest me what should I do to get resolve this issue.

In the print preview, there are some approximations to render as much as possible as in the printout, because of fonts installed on the frontend which are not exactly the same as in the printout. So, SAP tries to limit the differences in the global rendering, by repositionning characters. You may find some explanations in the SAP notes (search consulting-like notes with criteria like "text alignment print preview")

May be it is because of justification. Try with only left alignment.

That's right Sandra, with that Mohan you may try converting your preview output to pdf by giving pdf! in command field and see if the issue still exists.

I have resolved my issue, by changing Font to Times and the issue persist may be HELVE does not support the few HP printers or printer configuration.
