Author Message (Unregistered Guest) Unregistered guest Posted on Monday, November 01, 2010 - 05:30 pm:    Is anyone else experiencing "compatibility" problems between Masterspec and Word 2007, where text disappears in the "print view" and appears in the "draft view"? Arcom admits there is a problem with something about the macro for hidden text, i.e. Editor's Notes, but is not sure how to fix it. Their suggestion is to work only in the "draft view". Has anyone found a better solution? J.

Are you sure that your Word settings are correct?

Some styles are intended to be hidden text and therefore are not printed, by default, unless you turn on the printing of hidden text. You can contact ARCOM support via support [at] arcomnet [dot] com.

I have experienced the same situation in other documents where entire paragraphs or the start or end of a paragraph that extends to the next page may be "lost" in the print display mode. I just chalk it up to a Microsoft quirk and move on.

I click page-up then page-down to force a redisplay.
