Using Print Layout, then Insert, picture, from file, navigate to my pictures,
click on the desired picture and click insert. The picture does not appear
on the document. Just a large empty square with black border. If I click on
Read view the picture shows. It seems some setting has changed, but what?If
I click on the empty square the small circles appear as normal round a
picture but no picture. Help please!
