Clip art in a Word document does not print.

[Rita1107]

When I insert Clip Art into a Word document it shows on the screen just fine.
However, when I print the document, only the text prints. The clip art does
not print at all. This seems to only be a problem with Clip Art. When I
insert a Photo, it prints fine.
I have VISTA and MS Office 2007. Help!!!

In earlier versions, the trick would be to be sure that "Drawing objects" is
checked on the Print tab of Tools | Options. I believe that Word Options is
now accessed from the Office button.

I used the office button to go to Print/Options/Display/Print Options. There
didn't seem to be any options to fix this. I don't know why they took away
Tools in the new version, it is frustrating. The Help feature didn't seem to
have a solution either, although I'll continue to look. Any other
suggestions?

The option Suzanne noted is there, click the Microsoft Office button and
then click Word Options. Click Display, and in the Printing Options you'll
see Print Drawings Created In Word.
