I have created an all white object - white fill and no line.  It is on the Master Slide.
When I print in Black/White or Greyscale or preview, the border of the All White object appears as a thin black line.  Am I missing a setting?

Go to View/Black and White. Right-click the object and select B/W Settings.
Change "automatic" or "black with white fill" to just "white."

EXCELLENT.

But what if it is a text box? Doing your trick makes the TEXT white too!

In that case, you have to put a textbox on top of an autoshape.

Remove the fill and line from the textbox and set the B/W settings for the
textbox to "automatic" and the autoshape to "white."

If you don't need the textbox to cover up anything, then just skip putting
the autoshape behind/underneath the textbox.

Echo S, you are wonderful!! This was annoying me also to no end, and as you
showed, the way to fix this is not obvious. So thankyou!

Based on Echo's recommendations I figured out a way to fix the text boxes
without using another autoshape.  In B/W view right click the text box and  
set the B/S settings to grayscale instead of automatic or white.  Would not
have figured it out withouth the previous posts.  Drove me crazy so thank you.
