Problems printing bitmap figures with WriteNow 2.0

I've recently run into a problem printing a WriteNow 2.0
document using background printing.  I'm running System Software
version 6.0.3 and WriteNow 2.0 on a 2.5Mb SE with Radius 25
Accelerator.

The problem is that a document containing a half-page bitmap
prints just fine from WriteNow in Finder without background
printing, but will not print in MultiFinder using background
printing.  I've tried it with both a LaserWriter I and a
LaserWriter II NT with the same result - the document prints up
to the point where the bitmap appears, then silently quits
without any error messages or anything.

Is this a known problem?  How do I get around it?  Switching to
using Finder just to print this document seems awful silly to me.

Thanks
Jim
