Don't want image to print

S

Shan

I have letterhead with an image already printed. I inserted a photo
(of the image that's on the letterhead) so I can have a template that
I can view while typing. When I print the document, I only want the
text that I typed to print, not the image because it's already on the
letterhead. How do I get this image to not print? I'm on Mac OS X.

Hello Shan,

This is for Word 2001; I hope Word X is the same.

Select the image and go to Format menu -> Font -> check "Hidden text".

If the image disappears, go to Edit menu (I think that's Word menu in X) ->
Preferences -> "View" tab -> check "Hidden text".

Go to File menu -> Print -> Microsoft Word -> Word options -> make sure
"Hidden text" is not checked.

Post back if this doesn't work, and no doubt someone in X will help.

* A suggestion: If you post a question, keep re-visiting the newsgroup for
several days after the first response comes in. Sometimes it takes a few
responses before the best or complete solution is proposed; sometimes you'll
be asked for further information so that a better answer can be provided.
Good tips about getting the best out of posting are at

* Know the answer, even a partial one, to a question you see on this
newsgroup? Jump in and answer it -- there's no monopoly on answering here,
and we're all volunteers!

* Before posting a question about a topic, search Google Groups
(http://groups.google.com/advanced_group_search?q=group:*mac.office.word) --
it may have been comprehensively answered already.

* Please post all comments or follow-on questions to the newsgroup for the
benefit of others who may be interested. If you need to send an e-mail to me
directly (although that would be exceptional), remove the uppercase letters
from my address above. Please note that e-mails with an attachment will be
automatically rejected.

* If anyone is still reading down this far, here's a question: is it time
for you to back up your Normal template and all your Word settings files?
(This should be on a medium other than the internal hard drive and, if you
also want to protect against theft and fire, stored in a different
building.)
