      I’m trying to combine paragraph shading with a paragraph rule along one edge of the paragraph. It looks great on-screen, and exports fine to a PDF, but won’t print correctly to a postscript printer. The rule (used only to the left of the graph) prints fine, but the shaded box behind the text disappears. As I said, works fine if I go through PDF, but I don’t want to have to make a PDF everytime I want to print an in-house proof. It’s not the color of the shading…I’ve tried with different colors…and it’s not the font. Anybody have any ideas for me?

      Maybe it’s the postscript printer? Did you contact the manufacturer? Are your print drivers for that printer up-to-date?

      Maybe send to a friend or colleague somewhere who has a different printer? Did you print from a machine other than your own?

      Yeah–it could be an InDesign issue, but I’ve had issues where it was the printer itself.

      Thanks Dwayne. I’ll try that.
