- I just encountered similar problem last night, when I started adding
- bigger/more complicated graphics into my document. And my graphics
- that refused to print were just cut-and-pasted charts generated from
- Excel. They were not explicitly imported by reference.
-
- Same thing...closing the doc and opening it again re-display the
- graphics on screen but still does not print. Restarting Frame solves
- the problem. Seems like some form of lost synchronization between
- Frame and the print driver which does not re-synchronize itself.
- Definitely not lack of memory of any sort.
-
- My setup is, Windows 3.1, Frame 3.0, 8Mb RAM, ~80Mb free disk space,
- and a Canon BJ10ex printer.

- When does the gray hole occur, i.e. is there a specific event that
- causes the grey hole. In my (only 1) experience, it occurs when I
- tried to print the document. The "can't print imported graphics" pops
- up and there after lo-behold my graphics is greyed.
