These are generated by pressing SHIFT-CURSOR_LEFT when editing the field. To spot this, look carefully at the printout and it is usually possible to determine which field they are in (or at least make a good guess). This will be the last field printed before the blank page. To fix this problem, edit the card and look at the suspicious fields. When editing these fields all spaces will be shown as small squares but any form-feed characters will appears as blank spaces. These should be removed and replaced with spaces. To avoid this problem, be very careful NOT to press SHIFT-CURSOR_LEFT when editing. This is a particular problem with invoicing as the cursor is moved about the card by pressing CTRL-SHIFT-CURSOR keys. If you miss the CTRL key you can easily insert a SHIFT-CURSOR_LEFT unintentionally. -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
