Default print preview shows blank pages

Not many people think about it, but text boxes are (a special kind of)
drawing object.

Yes, the bulletin in set up with text boxes for each report or photograph,
I
didn't make the connection between the drawing objects box and the text
boxes, but once I selected that box, everything that I have created for
the
last 2 years, bulletin wise could be seen in print preview. Thankyou
again
both to ?Suzanne S. Barnhill and to you also - Stefan Blom.

Thank you Thank you Merci Merci

I don't know when it I changed it, but I took your advice and checked
off
the 'Drawing Objects' box in the Tools/Options and lo and behold all of
my
files now appear in print preview and all of the files print, not just
the
page numbers.

Thank you Thank you Suzanne S. Barnhill

On the Print tab of Tools | Options, is "Drawing objects" checked?

I have a bulletin with sixteen pages of text and pictures created in
Word
from Office 2003 that I have been creating for over 2 years.

I use print preview extensively to check the bulletin as it is
created
and
it has worked great for both previewing and printing - Until
yesterday.

Now I can see my bulletin content, but when I go to print it all I
get
printed on the pages are the page numbers. When I am in print
preview
all
I
can see is the page numbes on blank pages. How can get my printing
and
print
preview working properly on these files.
