 When using a large font (i.e. 16+) to write '''more than one''' paragraph
 the text will fit horizontally.  Close the activity and reopen the same
 text and Write attempts to fit the text in the screen making it look
 larger than it was originally.
 Sometimes the written lines in the reopened text are too big causing the
 text to scroll horizontally.  After the horizontal scroll occurs, the text
 cursor does no show in column zero (the leftmost position in the line).
 It's easy to see when the user tries to add a new line at the bottom of
 the text and the cursor dos not show in the new line.
 The horizontal scrolling does not happen on every line.
 I am enclosing a story written by my daughter that causes the problem as
 it is a bit difficult to reproduce.
