Re: Printing Transparent PNG's

[Sannyasin Sivakatirswami]

No, I did not get that to work. My guess: Revolution is not 
"flattening" the  .png file  to  universally printable postscript on 
output to a printer. I didn't try the snap shot. My context doesn't 
require the image to show, which was "window dressing" so I just hide 
the image when the user tries to print. Would be good to get this work 
though, I use transparent pngs everywhere....  You might test with a 
PNG file that has no transparency and see if that works on the same 
printer that is giving a grey box for a png that has transparency.

Hi Sannyasin

Did you get this to work? I had a similar problem ages ago, but really 
did not get any joy. If I printed on an Epson at home (Mac) my 
background image printed fine. However when I  printed to a laser 
Lexmark at work (Win) the graphic was just a grey area. I did find one 
printer that it worked on, but it had a large memory. I don't 
understand how Rev deals with graphics and why one should work and the 
other not. I tried updating drivers too. If it is a printer memory 
issue, then this is not good, as most o the printers in schools don't 
have high memory printers. (The ones that didn't work have 4mb. The 
one that did has 16mb.)

Did taking a snapshot and printing the image work? It did not help in 
my situation.

Greg
