Default Visible but not printable?

Is there a way to put some type of notation that is
visible in View Print Layout, but when printed that
notation is not printed?

I know about Comment, Markup, etc. but it doesn't
do what I would like to have.

TIA

Hi Joseph,

If marking the text as hidden and toggling the 'print hidden' flag under Tools|Options|Print doesn't do what you want, you could
embed your notation in a field coded as:
{IF{PRINTDATE \@ yyyyMMddHHmm}= {DATE \@ yyyyMMddHHmm} "" "Your notation goes here."}
where the field braces (ie '{}') are created in pairs via Ctrl-F9.

Printing the document temporarily hides the notation. Pressing F9 or print preview restores the display. However, since the
PRINTDATE field doesn't support seconds, you might have to wait up to a minute before you can restore the display.

Cheers
