Printing SP Instead of Horizontal Line
Word 2003 SP3 prints horizontal lines on a form when I send it to print from
my computer. However, a co-worker sends the same document to the same printer and gets SP on each line that should be a horizontal border. I checked Tools Options - Print and I don't see any differences between our setup. I appreciate any suggestions! |

Printing SP Instead of Horizontal Line
Is the other user using the same printer DRIVER?

Yes, I just double-checked the driver is the same version.
Just to clarify, both the sp and the horizontal border print. Again, I appreciate your help!

Printing SP Instead of Horizontal Line
This is something - or very similar to something - that I have seen reported
maybe half a dozen times. I think that the sp is reflecting the placeholder character used for the graphic and I think it must be being shown as a result of some corruption - either in the document, or perhaps the users settings in the registry. I would be interested to see the document if it is not confidential. -- Enjoy, Tony www.WordArticles.com "allison" wrote in message ...

My first guess is that it's somewhere in the Word Data registry key (HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Office\(version)\Word\Dat a) - try renaming the Settings value, Word will create a fresh one.

I did get your e-mail, thank you, Allison,but have been rather pre-occupied
of late. I couldn't see anything odd about your document, and it is beginning to look as though this rather strange error is caused, at least some of the time, by a registry problem. I'm glad you have solved your problem, and thank you for posting back. -- Enjoy, Tony www.WordArticles.com "allison" wrote in message ...
