I have a Visio flowchart that was pasted into a Word document. If I print
the Word document, the text and arrowheads print but not the shapes or lines.
If I double-click the graphic so it opens in edit mode and then print it, it
prints just fine. In my Options, I do NOT have picture placeholders checked,
I DO have Drawings checked in the View tab and Drawing Objects checked in the
Print tab.
