How to eliminate lines around a text box after choosing no line

[JimR]

In using PowerPoint I have placed a text box in my slide and formatted it for
no lines and white fill. When the document is printed the lines appear. How
do you totaly eliminate the lines after you have formatted the text box not
to display them?

Are you printing in black and white or grayscale?
Click View > Color/Grayscale > Grayscale
Right click the textbox, select Grayscale Setting > Grayscale. See if it
works this time round.

Do you really need to have the fill set to white? If not, set to "no fill"
and the problem is eliminated.

When in the print dialog box, set it to print in color and the lines will go
away and you can still have it filled in like it appears on your screen. HTH

Thanks Chrissy. I'm using it to cover up part of a table, since we don't
have the source file available. This saved a lot of time recreating
something.
