I have text boxes in my pictures with the line set to 'no line'. This is
fine in colour, but when i print in grayscale or view in grayscale the lines
show up. They still show up as black even if i set them to white. How can I
stop this?
Many thanks
 
Click View > Color/Grayscale > Grayscale
Right click the textbox, select Grayscale Setting > Grayscale. Does it work
now?

You must remove the fill, otherwise the line will print. It's irritating, I
know.

When I have to create a filled textbox that I know I will later print in
B/W, I actually put a filled rectangle behind a non-filled textbox precisely
so I don't run into this issue.
 
Fantastic, it worked - thanks!

Unfortuneatly this doesnt work, as some of the problem boxes are not text
boxs but boxes I have put in to cover over things I dont want on an inserted
file. The previous answer did help for this tho. THank you for your
response, I expect it will work in other circumstances.
 
I'm glad the other suggestion worked.

You should also remove the lines from your autoshapes if you want them to
cover in both color and black and white.
