Text in integrated Visio object not printing

B

Brad

I've got an object with integrated text boxes and the outlines show up on
print but not the text. Interestingly enough print.preview works great but so
far no printer has been able to print it (I've tried 3).

I have had this problem before. Some Visio objects did not print well when
pasted in Word.

Try embedding them instead (Edit > Paste Special > Link to file). SOmetimes
it works better like that, dpending on your set-up (Drivers, Office and
Visio versions)

If that does not work, try this instead (This is what I did as linking was
not an option in my case):
Edit > Paste Special > Paste and then choose an image format. I used the DIB
(Driver Independent Format, I think), that seemed to produced the best
results, both in print and in the PDF I was generating from the Word
documents.

Salut!
