VFD problem

I am using a VFD in place of an LCD and have the following problem. When I try to write to it after the first 3 letters I get garbage. But if I print the alphabet it comes out right. If I print Swordfish. It comes out Swo &Ff 6. The character after the o is the divide sign and the character after the f is pi. Any and all ideas are welcome.
