Hi folks
A lot of these bugs may be interrelated. Many feel like they could be related to the variant/quoting out issue. Thought it might be useful if i posted them as a family so folks can see the different comments from each of the bugs posted, the fonts specified and fixes suggested. If this is not a useful thing to post to the list holler.
Cheers
