Postscript Print to File

[SLS]

Trying to print to EPS file from Excel 2002 for embedding
in Pub2002 using Adobe Generic Postscript Driver. EPS
file is created OK, but is blank when inserted into
Publisher. I can insert a link to the Excel doc OK, but
I don't want to do this because it creates portability
problems.

Tried distiller 4.0 which produced a more-or-less proper
PDF file, so the EPS file at least is not blank.

Using Pub2002 in XP. Any ideas?

Thanks

SLS

Does the EPS appear on the actual printed page if you send it to your
printer?

Hi Brian,

I hadn't tried printing, but I did today, both a new pub
and the one I was working on, and in both cases the
picture came out blank. Rest of pub prints OK.

Thanks
