Hi there, I have a strange problem that I can't seem to fix. I have been given a publication to print that has page numbers inserted in the background. I wanted to remove the numbers for the cover and inside cover and so tried to place a text box with a fill over the top of it as suggested in the help. For some reason, the background page number is printing in front of the foreground text box with fill, even though on screen you can't see the background page number. I've tried doing this in a new publication and it works as expected, so is there a setting somewhere that is doing this, or has the file become corrupted in some way? Thanks for your help
-------UPDATE-------- Ok I've found what was causing it. In my printer settings I had raster instead of vector selected. Selecting Vector printing sorted the issue out, but now I have a new one. When printing in vector, the publication gets as far as page 4 of 28 and then errors and exits the program. Any ideas what's going on? Thanks again.
Have you considered your printer driver maybe out of date? Are you merging? What is the error message? It would be helpful to know. -- Mary Sauer MSFT MVP http://office.microsoft.com/ http://msauer.mvps.org/ news://msnews.microsoft.com "tobiwan" wrote in message news:97DE365C-7B49-4E61-825E-3D33C0427D2D@microsoft.com... > -------UPDATE-------- > > Ok I've found what was causing it.

It's not a merge. Printing to a Sharp MX3501N copier via ethernet. The driver was updated by the Sharp guy about a week ago. The error was a standard "The program mspub.exe has generated errors and will close" type affair. No useful information. I fixed the problem by lowering the DPI from 600 to 300 in the printer setting box. Not sure what's going on there..
