Go into layout mode and double check that the background doesn't go outside printing margins or across part-boundaries. - try creating a layout without the picture, can you print that? If you can then you have to try to recreate your background in a different way. Perhaps not pasting it onto the layout, but import it in a global container field. Then use the field als background. -- met vriendelijke groeten, Erik Appeldoorn
