Here's the example you posted:

***********************
*                     *
* First Name and Last *
* ENGR 109-X          *
* Fall 2999           *
* Format Example      *
*                     *
***********************

And here's the output from both bits of code I posted, which has 'one inch' 
of white space all around; both examples must be viewed with a fixed-pitch 
font (or in 'code' mode):






          ***********************
          *                     *
          * First Name and Last *
          * ENGR 109-X          *
          * Fall 2999           *
          * Format Example      *
          *                     *
          ***********************





Please post the output you're getting that has too many asterisks.
