stuck.

Are the fonts your doc hidden? Your Normal.dot settings may be changed.

I think try out this...create a new doc in word, type in some text, see the
print preview. If you see what you have typed then your Word is just fine.
if you can't see in print preview, see if the font is hidden
(Format-->Font). If the fonts are not hidden, then there is some problem with
your printer.

Remember you said, you can print clip art from Word, so it is just the text
that has problem.

Hope this helps.

Hi Sheila,

I (not long ago) posted this in your other thread ..
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
It is weird!

There are a couple of things you can check in Word (I don't know about
Excel) just to eliminate them as possible causes. I'm pretty sure they aren't
the problem because they shouldn't produce your exact symptoms but I think
it's worth checking them anyway.

1. Click inside some text and get to the font dialog and check that the font
is not set to be hidden. In pre-2007 Word, use Format>Font, and in Word 2007
use the little arrow at the bottom of the Font group on the Home tab.

2. In pre-2007 Word go to "Tools>Options>Print>Options for current document
only" and check that "Print data only for forms" is not ticked. In Word 2007,
the option is "Print data only for a form" and you can get to it by "Office
Button>Word Options>Advanced>When printing this document".

The following thread might be relevant to your problem; it doesn't contain a
resolution but there are a couple of links to MS KB articles that might help:

le.co.uk/group/microsoft.public.word.docmanagement/browse_thread/thread/77e51355e7dd2f10/8a08dc541d56e953?lnk=st&q=print+%22blank+page%22+group%3Amicrosoft.public.word.*&rnum=211&hl=en#8a08dc541d56e953

Given that both Word and Excel are affected, I think I'd try a "Detect and
Repair" as mentioned in http://support.microsoft.com/kb/826845/. You may need
the installation CD for that.

If you post back, can you say what versions of Office and Windows you're
using, and what make and model of printer
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

If your mate can print the docs, maybe you could try re-installing your
printer driver. One of the links I mentioned covers this.

Regards.

Ed

Hello again,

Just noticed the broken hyperlink following "The following thread ...".

It should be:

Hi Pranav

Thanks for your reply, if i go and press PRINT PREVIEW , i can see my newly
created word doc ( letter perfectly ) .

i emailed my new word docs ( standard letters etc ) to a mte via my usual
aol emails as word file attachmemts, and she rec'd my email and she could
print off the word docs) letters for perfectly on her computer/ printer, she
had to come round my appartment and hand deliver the hard copy letters so i
could post them in the mail ( post man ha ). no one has touched my lap top or
printer ! crazy that i can still printer the letter i created two wks ok
perfectly, i have even ..cut..paste...copied the two wk old letter on to a
new blank word page, and it prints ok.

i am baffled, i have tried. and checked some setting that ED has sent me,
but all my word print etc settings are fine.

what could hve happened in two wks, i have not even opened up word or excel
for 2 wks, i was even away on holiday for 1 week and my appatment was empty.

i am using xp, microsoft software Teacher and student edition 2003,
purchased new in nov 2006 from a big pc store in london, the shop even loaded
all the set up and soft ware discs for me to save me mucking around as i am
not a tecy person just a user, my old pc at home blew up nov 2006 so i
bought this brand new advent lap top and brand new software.

it is crazy that its ust since i last used wors/ excel it is printing
blanks, i have colour cartdride and black so its not a colour font problem.

i can print my aol emails ok, new and old ones, and i can print internet
pages ie, the bbc weather page.

i am stuck ??


sheila, London.

ps the weather in LOndon is a problem too ha ha , a bad summer, the wettest
juune in northern parts of the uk since records began 200 hundred yrs ago, we
have one day part sun part cloud in London, we cant plan ant BBQ's we the
spasmodic eratic weather !! i think i will move to india ha ha , i loved Goa
and Keral and Taj mahal at Agra !! And your sunny weather, and yr lap tops
and softwre are very cheap, its rip off Britain here !!!!

Hello Pranav

I have just realised my printing Word problem, daft me !!! The word doc I
created two wks I chose navy as the font colour, and I have just changed my
newly created word docs ( that were printing blank ) to navy blue font too
and they print fine, I knew my black and colour cartridges needed replacing a
few weeks back as they re printing faint.

I will buy new black and colour cartridges tomorrow, I feel so stupid !!

I still think its weird that my black emails and BBC weather web page has
printed in all its various colours, I am sure there must be a true black on
the BBC weather page I printed as a test ? or maybe if the black has run out
it defaults to very dark grey instead of black , but not for Word or Excel
docs .

Thank you very much for your help and advice, it was kind of you to reply.

I don't know if you can read all the replies I have had from a nice guy
called Ed / and anothet bored guy that worls for microsoft on this help
forum, as he has been rude, and told me several time to DUMP THE CAPS etc
etc..... how rudeof him, he must have sad a lonely life to bother to email me
me that nonsence, I know typing in caps is wrong, but my help request emails
on here are NOT formal letters to the Queen of England ha ha or my bank
manager.

Kindest regards.

From Sheila , London. Have a nice weekend. x

 

[sheila need word print help]

Dear, I seem to have lost the email I just typed to you, to let u know I have
sorted my non print of newly created word docs, I done a few silly test
things the letter I created two wk ago I chose navy font for the text, but
the new letters I chose automatic...black !! I have changed them to navy and
they have printed fine ! I feel so stupid ha ha , I knew my cartridges were
running low re my prints was getting faint quite few wks ago.

I will go to shops tomorrow and buy a new black and new colour cartridge.

Stupid me... but weird how my black aol emails are printing and my tet BBC
weather page that I printed, that must have many colurs to b printed
including tru black I guess ? as the weather for tomw Sunday show a black
cloud picture caption ha ha ..yes our bad English summer ! maybe when
internet and my aol emails need to have black print but the cartridge has
run out it may default to dark grey or another near to black colour ? But
obviously not for word docs !!! re Microsoft et up etc.

Anyway, have a nice weekend, and thank you again for all your nice emails
and advice.

( un like a Microsoft publisher on this help forum that has sent me..waste
of his time...rude emails, tellin me TO DUMP MY CAP LCK etc, he sent about 3
daft rude childish emails about my emails on here being in caps ! My emails
on here or not formal emails to the Queen of England or my bank manager ha
ha , hence I just got fed up with the print prolem and I was eating my dinner
, so I as using one hand for some email replie, the guy must have a sad and
lonely life to send me rude , waste of his time mails, if he does work for
Microsoft as per his email address etc, its very bad advert for Microsofts
P.R ha h, mybe the rude guy should pick on a man not a woman ( me )

Have great weekend, kindest regards fo all your kind emails.

Sheila
London
