I'm having trouble printing a ppt (2000). I've put some white text in a black box. When it prints out, it just prints a black box. I've tried sending the text to the front but this doesn't work. I was just wondering is a driver issue? We're printing using post script.
 
It does sound like a print driver or a printer settings issue. If the PREVIEW of the print job looks OK, then I wouldn't suspect a problem within PowerPoint. Try printing to another printer, if possible. Update your print drivers. Also, check your print settings for things like 'Print Background Images' and 'Send Text as Graphics'. Sometimes, when you let the printer do font substitutions, this will happen as well. Hope this helps. Michael
