Default Faint graphic on odd pages of book fold doc

Try printing a few pages from the PDF. If the bars print from the pdf, then
try checking some of the options from the book fold preferences. It sounds
like you have something from page set up on thats printing on you left pages.
If you would like to email me the pdf I could check to see if it was
somethng from your printer or something from word by opening the pdf up in
Illustrator.

I have a 360 page book that uses the book fold option. In order to get it to
print properly I use .doc format from word 2007. When I print (either on my
HP or on a large Panasonic), odd pages get a faint bar about 1.5" wide by
1/16" high starting at the left edge, not the left margin.

This bar does not show up when displaying on the screen in print, draft or
web view so it doesn't seem to be a watermark. The bar does not show up when
I save the file as a PDF and view it.

Even though I have the bar in every section, near the end of the book there
are three odd pages with no bar.
