graphic not printing in W97, W2003, and pdf
I have some graphics (a .png and .jpg) that I inserted into a W97 document.
They appear onscreen but not in the hard copy I have printed from 2 different printers. I thought it might be a W version issue. When I view and print from W2003, I get the same result (onscreen I see images, hard copy the graphics are MIA). I then printed to pdf and the resulting soft copy also does not display the 2 graphics. The .png is placed inside 2 columns as float over with text wrapping set to none ( I want this image as a background behind the text). The .jpg is simply inserted into a text box as inline text along with some actual text. Any ideas on how to make the picture print? My other question is why is float over not available when placing a graphic in a text box? |

What is probably the issue here is that you don't have "Drawing objects"
checked on the Print tab of Tools | Options. You can't apply text wrapping to an image in a text box because the text box is already in the drawing layer, and you apply the wrapping to it instead. But the image doesn't need to be in a text box in Word 2003 and possibly not even in Word 97. In Word 2003 it should have Behind Text wrapping if you want it as a background; this is the equivalent of "Float over text" + "None" in Word 97. -- Suzanne S.

Hi Suzanne:
Actually, I do have drawing objects checked in Tools | Options in the Print tab. I have it checked in both W97 and W2003. Any other thoughts? I appreciate any help here. "Suzanne S.
