Inserted jpgs print wrong
I have found that some of the jpg's that I insert into Word 2003 look fine
on screen but are not printing correctly on any of the HP postscript laser printers. Where one image is supposed to be it prints multiple images squeezed vertically. STeveK |

JPG files aren't postscript format. Try using your HP without the postscript
driver. ******************* ~Anne Troy www.OfficeArticles.com www.MyExpertsOnline.com "SteveK" wrote in message ...

The PostScript driver is probably a red herring. I have this problem on an
HP DeskJet but not on my HP LaserJet, and many users have experienced it on a variety of other printers. The only workaround anyone has found is to print directly to the printer, omitting spooling. -- Suzanne S.

Thanks, Suzanne. I'm really out of the loop with printing issues since I
started working from home. ******************* ~Anne Troy www.OfficeArticles.com www.MyExpertsOnline.com "Suzanne S. Barnhill" wrote in message ... The PostScript driver is probably a red herring.

It's one of those issues that seem almost certainly printer driver-related,
yet the printer manufacturers will not accept responsibility (and of course nor will MS). It seems to affect only certain JPGs, in my case those from my digital camera or scanner. -- Suzanne S.

But I have seen this problem with JPGs from cameras going into Word -- after they were cropped in Corel Photopaint. --- Also there was some reason why I was using JPG when I could have used WMF in the first place but I can't remember it right now.

My scans are directly to Corel Photo-Paint 6.0, and my photos are often
edited in Photo-Paint as well, so I would like to think that Corel Graphics is implicated in some way, but I've also seen this with my raw camera files. -- Suzanne S.

I have no idea; all I know is that disabling it works.

Through the printer Properties. The location and wording of the setting vary
with the printer driver. -- Suzanne S.
