Reproduced with updated 32bit win binary
(subsurface-4.1.94-13-g8092c0fdcd1c-32bit-Qt4). Bug #698 filed,
including screen shots and hopefully with enough detail. Mightn't be
an easy fix if others can't reproduce it. I'm not sure if this bug is
worth losing sleep over if I'm the only one seeing it, and for 'real
use' I use Linux, where this doesn't occur. But let me know if someone
wants to get to bottom of this.

0 l/m fix works for me (but SAC in dive list doesn't update when it should).

I updated PDFCreator (from whatever it was last time I needed to
create a PDF on Windows - probably a few years ago) and the table
fonts look much better. I won't file a bug as the issue appears to be
in the 'printer'.

This is still occuring for me with updated PDFCreator and latest 32bit
Windows binary. Bug 699 filed.

Looks good with updated build.

Looks good now with 3 letter abbreviations for days. Tack alla!
