Yellow Powerpoint highlighter obscures text when sent to OneNote

[jman995x]

My professor does his overheads in Powerpoint.
We can download them for a notes.
He uses multiple highlighter colors to offset Headers or important text.
When I "print" ("send to") OneNote, all the other highlighters show up, as
well as the text they are highlighting.
However, anything that has yellow highlighter over it is obscured...it's
just a big block of yellow highlighter and the text that it's supposed to be
highlighting is gone.

Any suggestions?

I'm going to assume that that is a problem with printing from powerpoint.
You may need to remove yellow highlighting from power points before
printing.
It may help if you went to the Powerpoint newsgroup.

Thanks for the suggestion.
Being a student, I'm more interested in getting OneNote to not have any
'hiccups', that's why I posted here thinking that somebody else might have
had a similar problem importing a PPT into OneNote.

Thanks,

Justin

Have you tried using the PowerPoint to OneNote powertoy? It's a stand-
alone executable that converts a PowerPoint file to a OneNote document.
I've used it in the past, and it's worked well for me, but I don't know
about the highlighting part.

Hope that helps.
