Publisher Print Problems

[mojo]

Clip art imports well but disappears when I hit the print button. If I
import pictures, they seem to stay put so have had to copy clip art to Word,
then scan it back in as a picture in order to use it. There has got to be a
better way.

Are the pictures printing even though you cannot see them?

Q: Why can I not see images/shapes/lines when editing my publication?

No. They disappear when I hit 'print' and don't show up at all on the
printed copy.
I am running XP with Publisher 97 but have had this happen on more recent
versions of Publisher which I use at work.

Did you see if there was a graphics problem? Did you visit the URL in my first
post?

Have you looked for an updated printer driver? Publisher usually has no printing
problems, more times than not it will be a corrupted or outdated driver.

It is wise to completely remove your driver before installing or reinstalling.

Many thanks. I did read up on the graphics thing but haven't had time to
work on it yet. I'll try those out. Appreciate your advice.

Kindest regards.
