I just played with the fonts, some print correctly, some do not. If you 
export as a pdf, the pdf prints correctly. Unfortunately a lot of 
teachers require times new roman which is a font that does not print 
correctly. If anyone has an idea for a fix it would be great, otherwise 
I'll just have my kids convert to a pdf first as a work around if they 
have to use a nonworking font.
