Little Brucie from the old neighborhood - 31 Aug 2004 16:10 GMT

Sometime certain shows print nothing and preview nothing.
Does anyone know the cause of this?

It might help if you gave us some information about the version of
PowerPoint you are using and the version of Windows. It might also help
if have any information about what is different about the ones that work
and the ones that don't.

Here is the version info:
osX1.3 / PPT 2004 / didn't touch any Windows as far as i
know

Here's what happens:

The preview window is blank (white) in 'slides'
and 'handouts' . If you choose 'preview' same problem and
if print all pages are "printed" with no images

if you choose to preview, you will see an empty show. If
you choose to print the pages will come out blank

Aha! You're a Mac person. If you don't get a sufficient answer here,
you might check the Mac PowerPoint group. I have both a Windows box and
a Mac, but my Mac is only up to PowerPoint X, not 2004.

Actually I'm a pc person. I'm asking on behalf of a co
worker. I believe printing has been an issue for the mac
since the prior version. Also Office 98 is used
sometimes. Could the issue live there?
