Font Problem

    I am using an Macbook for my day to day work. When I send E-mails that I have copied and pasted I am finding that the receiver is getting them with different size fonts. Sometimes, the lines are all over the place, even though I highlight and select the same font for the whole message. It looks fine when I send it. It happens on my Gmail account as well as my apple mail. Any ideas?

    Just as a test, can you copy and paste the text from source into a plain text editor (e.g. TextEdit) and then paste into an email and send to your Gmail account as a test? What are the results here?

    This should just send in your default Mail.app font.

    (On another quite note, what are you pasting from? Word doc? PDF? The inline styles could be pasting in as well here, thus the plain text test suggestion initially)

    Pasting from a previously sent G-mail message
