I have a graphic in a .docx document and it will only print when i print all the pages. If i want to print the graphic only it prints a blank page. If i save the document as a .doc it works!
Anyone have a solution/suggestion to fix this?

Hi Len:

A few people have been caught by that one :)

Just check that the graphic is not anchored in the header or footer? If it
is, then it is actually stored with the formatting information at the end of
the document in the master section break, and it won't print unless the
whole document prints.

However: there is a bug in Word 2008 that produces this problem. You may
be able to work around it by setting the picture inline with text, or by
changing the paragraph to which the picture is anchored.

Hope this helps
