We are seeing this problem also. It also happens on a Mac SE as well as a Plus. By the way, you don't mention which version of the LaserWriter driver you are using. We have this problem with 5.2. The problem seems to be related to having rotated text in the document. If you don't have rotated text, we haven't seen the problem. If you have rotated text you may or may not have the problem. One user reported that she left the rotated text alone, moved other objects and the document printed. I haven't had the time to research the effects of changing versions of the OS and LW drivers, etc, so can't recommend what is the latest version of system software that doesn't have this problem with MacDraw 1.9.5.
