Hi there

There has always been a bug in the way the Microsoft HTML Help Viewer prints the topics. Then again, the symptoms are USUALLY that the styling characteristics get lost along the way.

You might try clearing your Temp folder and see if things improve. As I understand it, when printing occurs, the Microsoft HTML Help Viewer performs a giant concatenation of topics to create one massive HTML page. It then hands that single page to the print engine.

Cheers... Rick

My bet is that this has nothing to do with printing. I bet there is a topic in the book you are trying to print that would display the same (or similar) error if you tried to display it. Go through the book displaying each topic in turn until you find it. Once you've done that, you may need to do a bit of detective work to see what has gone wrong. Try creating a new project and import that topic into it. Does the same error occur? If so, that means your topic is at fault.
