MSWord help should explain how to print a text box

Guest

I created a document in Word using text boxes, but when printing the document
the text boxes would not print. I searched in the help and was unable to find
what the problem was. Given that the answer ending up being very simple, but
NOT obvious it would have saved me a great amount of time and aggravation to
have had it appear in help.
BTW you have to go into print under options you have to check the box under
"include with document" that says "drawing objects"

Thanks so much for your post! I had the exact same problem - and you are
right. The answer is NOT obvious, and needs to be in the Help Topics under a
new SubTopic which could be under Text Box Printing.

Your post saved me a lot of time, too - though I had already been trying for
over an hour to find the answer in Help, and on my own.

Thanks again,
