[Lexicog] Sort order problem

Hi Wayne,

I have a dictionary problem and I would appreciate your advice.

I am using toolbox and I am trying to print off a copy of a dictionary. The exported word file puts a space and a tab after the head word. Depending on the length of the head word, the tab is sometimes realised as one space and sometimes as several spaces. This results in a ragged appearance. 

Is there some way of modifying the toolbox export function to just put two spaces after the head word, and not a tab? Who can help me with this problem?
