Opens in Black & White

[Amber]

I received a publisher file in an e-mail and when I open it, it opens in black and white and it should open in color. Is there a setting that I should change, or do you have any clue why it opens in black and white? I am using Publisher 2003

Thanks!
Amber

Yes, I'm sure, I was supposed to look at the colors. I know all about ruling out the obvious!

There is no setting in Publisher for changing a file from colour to B&W.

The only setting that will affect quality is under menu View > Pictures.

There may be some corruption in the Publisher file if you received the file
by e-mail or used a junk iOmega ZIP drive.

After managing to set up OE-QuoteFix on his new PC, Ed reads a message

There is no setting in Publisher for changing a file from colour to
B&W.

The use of Spot Colors in the Commercial Print Tools will do this.

Is there a way to fix this then? Or not

Thanks!!

There is nothing to fix as far as we are concerned.

Firstly unless there is corruption in the file causing this issue, and I can
assure you, I have never ever heard of this issue in Publisher any version
in 14 years. Publisher files going corrupt is far from a common problem.
You just have to search the newsgroups to see how seldom it happens.

Get the person who sent you the file another copy. Make sure the ZIP the
file before sending it to you if they are using e-mail, or by CD Rom.
