Its not a stupid quirk.  Its an absolute necessity in order to view on the 
page what you will get on the printer.  Its possible to construct a document 
which will print properly on a multitude of printers, but it requires that 
certain formatting rules be followed.  The most critical of these is to never 
use spaces and multiple tabs to position text on a page.  Use of tables and 
tab settings also helps to get things formatted properly.
