    Excel Text Not Printing

    I have an issue with some of the sheets we use in the office. The worksheet will print formats just fine, but once in a while, It does not print text. Before I thought it was just colored text. With this new document I see it is all text except for two cells. when I publish files to a pdf this does not happen. Any of the documents that this happened to before needed to go out to customers as a pdf anyways so I just told people to publish as a pf and print that since they were doing it anyways. This is just an internal document that does not go out, but needs to be printed. I would rather not have people creating a pdf every time just to print, because quite honestly, they will just complain to me about it. I dont really think they should have to anyways if I can fix this. Does anybody know what is happening or how to fix it. My best thought is an issue with the printer driver. Please see the attached example.

    An image attachment has very little value. Just attach the Excel file.

    Under the text box where you type your reply click the Go Advanced button. On the next screen scroll down and click on Manage Attachments, which will show a pop-up window to Select and Upload a file. Then close the window.

    "but once in a while" ? Yeah, I am guessing printer driver issues. Do you have a different printer you can try this on?

    Then, it's tough to say what's happening there. Try removing all formatting and then save as PDF. Then let me know if you are having the same issue.
