My documents print with ghost text overtop.

I have created templates from which I make documents. On the print preview the document is flawless, but when I print from a network printer, the document comes out with hundreds of lines of formatting text printed over top of my document. Some of this text includes "rlineto 0 wp$y rlineto wp$x neg 0 rlineto closepath } def and is printed over top of itself in different font sizes throughout my document. HELP!

If you click on File | Print... does the printer named in the "Printer
Name" box match the printer you're printing to? Click on Options... are
any of the boxes checked?

You're looking in Tools | Options | View. I wanted you to look at the
selected printer in File | Print, and then at the print options in File
| Print | Options.

This sounds like a printer driver problem (looks like PostScript or other
printer instructions are being printed, not executed) Does this happen from
other machines/programs? Are the latest drivers installed?
