doc from Publisher 2000 to 2003
I have a document that was originally created using Publisher 2000 and was
imported into the 2003 version and I've noticed a strange problem... on one page, a text box was created and superimposed overtop of a clipart image and the text box was free rotated so that the text would match the angle of the clipart image. But now, when printing that page, the text in the rotated box will not print clearly... I even deleted the old text box, recreated it using the same text as before and free rotated it to fit the image again and still the text will not print clearly... but if I leave the text box alone... in other words... DO NOT free rotate to angle it, the words will print clearly! Any idea why this is happening? The printer is the same one I've been printing this Publisher file with for the last 8 or 9 years... an HP Color Laserjet 8550N |

Rotate from the format menu. Right-click the text box, format text box, size
tab. Maybe it will be clearer. Is it a common font? I rotated some text (TNR), it did not look good on screen but it printed perfect. I also have a laser printer, probably much older than yours. Although mine is a b & w printer, might make a difference. Have you tried WordArt? There is a download for WordArt compatibility so you can use 2000 WordArt in the newer versions. You use it by Insert, Object, Scroll down to Microsoft WordArt 3.2 Download details Publisher 2003-2002 Add-in WordArt Compatibility http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/d...displaylang=en This will work in 2007 and 2010 -- Mary Sauer MVP http://msauer.mvps.org/ "rjones" wrote in message ...
