Totally weird graphic thingy

[RBilleaud]

I've got a real doozy! I have a graphic (.jpg screen capture) that
have placed in a table. I also have several other graphics inserte
all in exactly the same manner, and on screen everything is fine.
Everything shows up as its supposed to. BUT ... on this one graphic
when I print the document out, neither the graphic NOR the captio
beneath are showing up. All of the other graphics and captions ar
cool. There is a blank space in the table where the graphic should be
so it's like Word knows something is supposed to be there. I hav
tried replacing both the graphic and caption but nothing seems to work
I've got 12 years working with Word and I'm totally stumped. An
ideas? P.S. Do you hate smilies as much as I do?

Hi RBilleaud,

I've got a real doozy! I have a graphic (.jpg screen capture) that I
have placed in a table. I also have several other graphics inserted
all in exactly the same manner, and on screen everything is fine.

when I print the document out, neither the graphic NOR the caption
beneath are showing up. All of the other graphics and captions are

so it's like Word knows something is supposed to be there. I have
tried replacing both the graphic and caption but nothing seems to work.

ideas? P.S. Do you hate smilies as much as I do??

Which kind of smiley? This kind , that one finds in the newsgroups? I
find them useful, as they help to convey that something was meant in a
friendly, rather than aggresive sense.

As to your real question: One can assume that there's no graphical object
overlaying that table cell? (Take the obvious first, because sometimes we
spend days - literally - going 'round on something and it was the "Naw,
surely they've checked that" idea that turns out to have been the
problem)

If it's not the obvious, then my inclination is to say that either the
graphic file itself or the table's internal structures may be slightly
damaged. When you say you've tried replacing the graphic, you do mean
with a different graphic file?

In that case, if you create a new table with all the same graphics, in a
new document, does that print out correctly? (Do NOT try copy/paste, as
there's a chance the structural problem could come across!)
