SUMMARY

When you print business cards from Microsoft Publisher, the crop marks will appear even if the Print Crop Marks check box has been disabled in the Print dialog box.

STATUS

=
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Publisher versions 2.0 and 2.0a. This problem was corrected in Publisher version 3.0 for Windows 95.

MORE INFORMATION

===

The Business Card & Paper PageWizard displays what appears to be crop marks around the business card on the first page. These are actually short line segments placed on the page to simulate crop marks. Because they are not actually crop marks, disabling them in the Print dialog box has no effect. To prevent these marks from printing, they must be removed.

Follow these steps to remove the crop marks:

1. Press and hold the SHIFT key while clicking each of the line segments until they are all selected. (As soon as the second line is selected, a  marquee selection and grouping tool appears. This behavior is normal and   can be ignored.)

3. Release the SHIFT key.

4. Press the DEL key.

The crop marks are now deleted.
