Publisher 2003 won't print
I have just taken over writing a newsletter which is 8 pages with LOTS of
photos and graphics. It needs to be converted to a pdf file for publishing on our web site. I tried using Publisher 2003 this last month and after many days of putting the newsletter together and getting it just the way I wanted it, it totally failed to convert! It wouldn't print to my HP 6110 All-In-One Printer either! My computer is a PC with XP and service packs 1, 2 and 3. I am using Adobe 8.0.1. What could be wrong? I was able to copy (with much exasperation) the whole thing on to Word 2003 just to get it published on time, but I would really rather use Publisher if it is going to be possible. Any suggestions? |

Exactly what does; "...totally failed to convert" mean?
You print to Adobe Acrobat...like a printer...is that what you tried? What DID happen...errors? You've mentioned an Adobe Acrobat, HP printer, Word, and a website....what exactly are you trying to do? -- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Rob Giordano Microsoft MVP Expression "Peach14" wrote in message ...

I was trying to do two things. 1. Print to my HP 6110 All-In-One printer AND/OR 2. Convert the Publisher file to a pdf fileby using the buttons on the upper left side of the publisher screen. Neither worked. |

"Neither Worked" is not a useful answer.
What program did you use to convert to a PDF? Can you print other documents from PUB or anything? What was the error? Wots Your Real Problem??? John G. "Peach14" wrote in message ...

Do you have problems printing other documents? Do you have gradients and/or transparencies in your publication? Select the AdobePDF from file rather than the button on the toolbar. -- Mary Sauer http://msauer.mvps.org/ "Peach14" wrote in message ...
