PUB2000: Background Colors and Tiled Graphics Do Not Print

This article was previously published under Q207625

SYMPTOMS

If you create a Web site publication (a publication that will be converted to HTML) and choose a custom background, that Publication prints with a solid white background. The custom color or tiled graphic does not print.

NOTE: The textured background does print from Internet Explorer 4.0.

CAUSE

This is by design and is consistent with the way the finished Web Page will print from your Web browser.

MORE INFORMATION

Publisher has the ability to preview a graphic that will not print. If you are working on a publication to be printed, you can click Special Paper on the View menu. This gives you a choice of some graphic backgrounds that will display, but not print. These are useful for working with PaperDirect pre-printed special papers. The graphics or colors you choose, by clicking Background and Text Colors on the Format menu, work the same way. You can see them, and when you export your publication to HTML, they are exported too. However, they will not print from Publisher or your Web browser.

PaperDirect is a vendor independent of Microsoft; we make no warranty, implied or otherwise, regarding their products' performance or reliability.

Community Feedback System

Very often, it takes hours to solve a problem. Very often, you've looked high and low, and have tried a lot of solutions. When you finally found it, chances are, it was because someone else helped you. Here's your chance to give back. Use our community feedback tool to let others know what worked for you and what didn't.

Please also understand that the community feedback system is not warranted to be correct, it's simply a system that we've built to let people try and help each other. If something in a feedback response doesn't make sense to you, or you're not comfortable making changes that the feedback talks about (like registry edits), please consult a professional.

Thank you for using kbAlertz.com Feedback System.
