Becky;
I'm not sure what you have tried so far, but here's a couple of things to try:
Do you use "Print Selection" when you print? There may be something that is not visible on the screen that is causing your problem. Select what you want printed and click on Print. On the print dialogue box, click on the Selection radio button in the Print Range area. I ALWAYS use print selection. It eliminates a lot of potential problems!
Use print selection to print just a line (circle, square) not associated with the ruler (draw a new one) just to verify it's not the file itself.
Go to the Advanced tab (if you can get there) on the print dialogue box and then click on Settings. Uncheck everything under "Issues to check for". You may want to "print" something other than the ruler (maybe create a single) to get to these settings. I thought they might be in the main options settings but I couldn't find it.
Delete a portion of the ruler and try printing. Do this in stages, start by deleting most of the data and then printing. If it prints, keep adding portions until you find the spot that is causing the problem. If it is locking up before it gets started printing, this procedure should go quickly.
Move the graphic to a different part of the drawing space and try printing.
Group the objects and try printing.
Copy the graphic to a new CorelDraw file or downsave it to a previous version, close CorelDraw, open the file and try printing again.
Just thought of another..... One of my customer's is running version 7 of CorelDraw. She was having a similar problem and I isolated it for her by process of elimination and it turned out to be BMP graphic that she had imported and then reduced it size dramatically. Could that be what you have done with this new version of the ruler? The fix was to resize the graphic in PhotoPaint and then re-import it. |
