Screenshot of page 1 and 2 viewed with MS Office 2010

No problem -- I just asked because there was a chance that you knew it. ;-) So
let's assume that the file was probably created with Microsoft Office.

This is possible; I can't tell.

I wondered how this document is _supposed_ to look, and therefore borrowed a
Win 7 machine with MS Office 2010. I attach the screenshot of page 1-2 (the
image was created from two screenshots, therefore don't care for the strange
look of the vertical scrollbar ;-).

IMHO the page layout is strange even in MS Office (see the table reaching from
page 1 to 2 and therefore split in the middle of a row!). Maybe I have damaged
the formatting of the 1st title line by accident, but this does not explain the
layout problems. Whoever created this document obviously did not care for
resizing/reflowing text issues (a form used to apply for seminars which cost
$500 for 4 days could look a bit more professional ;-).

But this is not our problem. What I want to say is that we should concentrate
on fixing the "black boxes" problem and on the inexplicable extra page break
before the
    "www.hknc.org             ntthknc at hknc.org"
line; the overall spacing and page layout is IMHO a minor problem, because the
page layout is not correct even in MS Office.
