Print issues

Hi gang,

I've got a movie clip that's printing another movie clip outside of itself. Here's the code:

     printAsBitmap(this._parent.printClip], "bframe")

I have the "printClip" (which is larger than the stage, being 850 x 1100 pixels) off stage and it prints just fine when I do a test publish from within flash. However, when I print directly from the swf or from running the swf in my browser nothing prints. If I move the clip into the stage, it just prints the portion that is showing in the stage, like the stage is masking it.

I also tried "bMax" and "bMovie" with no success.

Any input appreciated, thanks,

dp

Sorry, meant to say I tried "bmax" and "bframe" (lower case)
