Word 2000 - Printing Text Boxes, text is not printing
Hi,
I have a document that has a header page that is blank followed by 3 pages of data that contain text boxes. The 3 pages are repeated each time for a different person. My software populates data into these text boxes. When this document is produced and I open it, it looks fine (it is saved as ..rtf). But when I print it, the first few pages of data are blank with empty text boxes. The text that was in the text boxes has dissapeared. But, the same 3 pages that are repeated, at the end of my document for one person print fine. I tried saving the document as .doc but this made no difference. I have also entered in tools-options that the drawing options is ticked under the print tab. I am using Word 2000 and a colleague is using 2002 and we both have the same issue printing the same document. However, another colleague using Word 2003 can print it fine. It is really strange. I can send the document to you. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Many thanks |

Have you tried printing to a different printer?

Word 2000 - Printing Text Boxes, text is not printing
We only have the one printer in the office
I did however manage to solve it by removing the update links tick box against the Tools - options - print tab "Stefan Blom" wrote: Have you tried printing to a different printer? -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "Kelly Rae" wrote: Hi, I have a document that has a header page that is blank followed by 3 pages of data that contain text boxes.

OK. I'm guessing that something has happened to the target of the link,
then, since it disappears when Word updates fields on print? -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "Kelly Rae" wrote in message ...
