When I insert a picture into my Word document the picture does not appear, but a black outline does.

When I do a preview, I can see a copy of my picture.

Can someone please let me know how to fix this
problem.

Thank you.
 
I believe the problem is caused when the size of the item being inserted is somehow interacting with borders, margins, or pagebreaks or something...... Often I experience these symptoms when resizing images too largely on the screen. Try decreasing slightly the size of the image and see if that solves it.
 
Thank you. I've tried that and still a no show
 
Try the following:

Go into Tools, Options, click the view tab. Take the tick out of Picture Placeholders and click ok. This should work.........
 
Thank you so much. It worked out great!
