Check boxes don't print

I just spent hours creating an excel form with many check boxes only to print it out after I was done, and the check boxes don't print. I searched this forum and found a similar posting about 5 months ago, and the MVP said they were working to find a solution to this problem. This is a BIG problem. Have you found a solution you? Check boxes shouldn't be available if they can't print- what is the point?

I think I might have been the MVP. I know Microsoft is aware of the issue. I
have no idea about when (or even if) it may ever be fixed. You can express
your displeasure directly to Microsoft by using the Send Feedback in the
help menu.
