Hello all,

I did insert a picture (brack & white [JPG]) into my document but are unable
to see it on the screen. If I take the file to another computer I do see it
in the document. I have tried to compare the settings of the two computers
but can not find the diffrence. No the strange thing is if I add or remove a
tool bar, I do see the picture until i scroll it off the screen, with
scrolling back the picture does not come back.

Could anyone give me a clue what I could do to tame this ghost image.

Thx,
Ludovic

Hi Ludovic,

This is probably because your PC's display driver doesn't work well with Word. Check the maker's website for an updated driver.
failing that, you could try reducing the display hardware acceleration via the Windows Control Panel.

Hi

Have you tried Tools-Options-View-Show-Picture Placeholders unticked?
Not sure why the toolbar thing would make a difference but it's worth a
look... Also have you installed all updates?

Also go into Printer options (Tools, Options, Print tab) and make sure that
Drawing Objects is checked under the Include section.
