I'm having a bizarre problem printing out MacDraw II 1.1 files in colour.
1 week ago everything was hunky dory, but now:
* Squares, circles, ovals, rectangles and rounded rectangles are
printed out in colour OK (I've just created six solid colour
fill patterns in MacDraw)
* Any polygon or freehand shape on the same document is printed out
filled in BLACK regardless of the fill colour!
System details:
* System 6.0.8
* Phaser III (Tektronix) Colour Printer
* MacDraw II 1.1 Bv2
* Phaser III PXi printer driver (v7.0 laserwriter)
I'm at witt's end! As I said, 1 week ago these drawings were printed out
correctly in colour, but now they're not!
I'm pretty sure it's not the printer driver, so it must be something to do
with the setup of MacDraw II, but I can't find what I've changed, and I've
exhausted all the menu options.
One thing I have noticed is that I no longer get the "This document contains
color..." dialog box immediately after I click "OK" to print, whereas when
the files were being correctly printed out, I think I did get this dialog box.
Any ideas at all what the problem is or how it might be fixed? I will really
appreciate any pointers at all! Thanks!
(Sorry if this is in the wrong newsgroup).
