How do you get transparency settings on a fill effect to print?

Hi-

I am working on a publication for print. I have used a two-color gradient
effect to fill an object. I then applied transparency to allow objects in
the background to show through as sillouettes. It looks great on screen, but
when I go to print, the transparency is ignored. I have tried multiple
printers, so the problem seems to be within Publisher. Transparency does
work when the object is filled with a single color not using an effect. I
would appreciate any suggestions.

Thanks.

Known bug in Microsoft Office applications.

The current work around is to select the image, go to Edit > Copy, then Edit
Paste Special and paste as an image (such as PNG). Use the new pasted

object instead of the original object you created.
