Watermark Problem
Three machines at the office all have MS Office 2002 installed.
The problem is with inserting a watermark. It works just fine on one of the PCs but fails on the other two using the same exact .doc file, not copies. The document contains a table with field codes for the user to enter either text or select from drop down menus. For normal operation the document is protected. The document is a feature sheet for home sales. When the home is sold I add the a "SOLD" watermark diagonally across the page. To do this I have to unprotect the document. After the watermark has been inserted everything looks just fine, including in the Print Preview mode until I try to print the document. As soon as I press the printer icon all the variable data is reset to the default condition! I have tried it both with re-protecting the doc before printing and leaving it un-protected, makes not difference. Any suggestions on what to look for? Another question about watermarks, is there any way to change the default watermark text selections? I would like to add SOLD to the list. Thanks for reading..... |

Can it be that "Print data only for forms" is turned on? Look under Tools |
