PRJ4: Characters Incorrectly Displayed with HP Pen Plotter |
Q134838
In Microsoft Project, when you view your project in print preview, some of the text in your project may be displayed incorrectly if you are printing to an HP pen plotter such as DraftMaster II, 7586B or DraftPro EXL.
If you are using the HP pen plotter driver, words that are formatted
with Bold formatting are displayed with all of the characters stacked on
top of each other. For example, the word "Task" appears as one illegible
character; the letters appear on top of each other. In some cases, only the
first letter of the word may be displayed. Note that with using the default
text styles, this problem affects field headings and timescale text in most
views.
This problem does not occur when you run Project 4.0 under Windows or
Windows for Workgroups version 3.x.
Note that this is only a problem with the way information is displayed on
your screen. Your project is printed correctly even if you are using Bold
formatting and the document is displayed incorrectly in print preview.
This problem does not occur in Microsoft Excel or Word using the an HP
pen plotter. Additionally, if you insert a Microsoft Project OLE object
into a worksheet in Microsoft Excel, the object is displayed correctly in
print preview in Microsoft Excel. If you insert a Microsoft Excel OLE
object in a project file, the object also is displayed correctly in print
preview in Microsoft Project (even though other text in the project may not
be displayed correctly).
