When trying to print out a definition using Websters under 3.0, the message "Some or all of the pages in your print request couldn't be printed" pops up. Does anyone know what the problem is? -- Andy Provenza email:smprove@lerc.nasa.gov NASA Lewis Research Center Cleveland Ohio 44135-3191

Does anyone know what the problem is? > > -- > Andy Provenza > email:smprove@lerc.nasa.gov > NASA Lewis Research Center > Cleveland Ohio 44135-3191 There is a known bug in Webster in 3.0 that causes errors when printing some definitions which contain pictures. It seems to be a problem with pictures that are stored as EPS. The workaround is to copy the text of the definition into an rtf document and print that. Note that you can't copy the picture because that also results in an error when you paste it. Of course, this workaround doesn't get the picture printed. You might be able to save the PS output and fiddle with it so that you can print that, but I wouldn't advocate that unless you were comfortable fiddling with PS code. If you are interested, the offending command is the currentpoint command after the picture. Kate Smith NeXT Developer Support
