will only print 1st page, then 3 blank pages

S

sanddollar

I created a newsletter in Publisher and it looks and prints fine. When I
email it to myself (and others) in Outlook and Gmail, it looks fine. But when
I go to print, it will print the first page, then the rest of the pages blank
(I get the footer that says "2 of 4" etc). It is doing this with two separate
documents - one that is 4 pages, and one that only looks like 1 page, but is
getting cut off and split in two.

Why is it doing this and how can I stop it??? It's happening on multiple
computers with multiple printers and different email programs. It doesn't
happen with any other documents we've created in Publisher - just these two.
Please help!!

I would love to just do that, but my boss wants me to send them this way so
the links in it will still work (and apparently not all of our cilents have
the pdf reader).

I am going out of my mind with this! It has never done this before and I
can't figure out what's different.

Unfortunately as long as your boss insists on doing it that way, your
readers will have issues with printing.

You didn't say how your are doing it. If you are sending your newsletter out
as a message in an email vs. as an attachment, you can only send a single
page. If you want to send a multipage newsletter as a message, then you have
to put all the content on one page. Reference:
http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/publisher/HA010563151033.aspx
and
http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/publisher/CH062524821033.aspx

Sending a multipage newsletter as an attached PDF is the best approach in my
opinion. Publisher 2007 can generate a PDF document where the hyperlinks
survive the conversion.

"not all of our clients have the pdf reader..." And these folks do have
Publisher? How quaint. If the Adobe reader isn't cheap enough, there is
always: http://www.mirekw.com/winfreeware/mwsnap.html

Publisher can send emails that are not attachments.
