Cannot print visio 2007 drawing with jpg's in it

[Brian Spencer]

I can print small files OK but when I am designing DVD covers etc and insert
jpg pictures into that design (sometimes 6/8). the drawing does not show in
print prevue and just prints a blank sheet. This is a major problem as the
DVD covers need to be different sizes, dependant on the case size.

Is it the Visio print memory? if it is, how can I increase it?

I've not been able to duplicate this problem, and have tried multiple jpg
files that are both large and small, and sized them in a variety of ways.
So, you see the inserted picture in normal drawing mode, but it disappears
when you go to print preview?

You have it exactly. I can see my designs fully in the working file, but go
to print preview and nothing! print that and blank page. My old technical
visio used to handle every thing that I put in it but 2007 won't?

I have tried uninstalling the program and reloading it etc etc etc. I
believe that it may be something to do with the set up but i can't crack
it????

Are shapes on a non-printing layer?
Can you save as graphic format and save as PDF?

In addition to what Paul wrote, he actually helped another individual with a
similar problem. I believe in that case, the drawing ended up off the page.

Hope Paul's past or current suggestions help.

Yes, I'd forgotten about that one!
I really wish people would come back and tell us the result of what
they do, does the fix work or not, it helps other people looking
through the group archives at a later date.
