Visio text

[Rob_Sproule@adobeforums.com]

I am using The latest versions of Windows XP, Office XP, Visio Professional 2002 and Acrobat Professional 6.01.

When I create a flowchart in Visio - with text in the flowchart text boxes- and past it into a Word document and then convert the Word document to PDF for E-mail, the text in the visio flowchart boxes does not appear in the PDF version, the flowchart symbols are shaded as per origiinal, but the text does not appear.

Can anyone help? suggestions please

Me too i have the same problem: if i convert the flowchart directly from visio with pdf maker, everything goes well.
If i convert a word document with "inside" a flowchart created with visio, the text in the flowchart disappear!

If you are interested, i can send you an example via mail.
If you have a solution please send me a mail:
[email]rpelle@tiscali.it[/email]

i'll be very happy if anyone can solve this "bug"

The file readme in acorbat directiory tell about "a problem with transparent text of visio" but i have not used transparent text!

Thank's

Sorry for my bad english....

Hi --

We had the same problem -- found the solution posted in the Acrobat forum. Change the Distiller printer settings from 1200 dpi to 600 dpi -- worked on all Word and Powerpoint files that had Visio 2002 embedded graphics -- steps follow:
1. Click Start > Settings > Printers.
2. Right-click on Adobe Distiller and choose Printing Preferences.
3. Select the Paper/Quality tab and then click Advanced.
4. Under Graphics, change the Print Quality resolution from 1200 dpi to 600 dpi and click OK.
5. Click Apply and then OK to exit Printing Preferences.
6. Create your PDF as usual, using the PDF Maker icon in either the Word or Powerpoint file.

Another solution is to open the Visio graphics using Visio 2000 or earlier then changing the "output format" from jpeg/gif to print in the Properties menu. (This menu item is not available in Visio 2002 and the default was changed from "Print" in 2000 to "JPEG/GIF" in 2002.)

Hope this works for you.

thank's to anyone!
