This supernatural phenomena is freaking me out JethroUK© 12/27/2008 1:42:58 PM Posted about this a few times but with no explanations, so i can only put this down to the supernatural Everytime I try to print using Microsoft Office Document Image Writer (hence post to ms office newsgroups) - It goes through the motions (save a printout as a file) but the file (a .tiff file) cannot be seen by Vista (as if it doesn't exist) Yet! (and here is the part that freaks me out) The files can clearly be seen *only* by Microsoft Office Document Image Writer save as dialogue box http://tinyurl.com/9mgyvh Here you can clearly see one dating back as far as 29th Sept 2008 visible through a dialogue box i opened today (some 3 months later) Has anyone got any explanations or is this supernatural phenomena? Failing that - I use a 'Windows' image writer at work and that works fine - Anybody know what it's called?

Go to the Save As dialog box of Document Image Writer. 2. Right-click the file and select "Cut" menu item. 3. Get rid of the Save As dialog box and show the Desktop. 4. Right-click on Windows Desktop and click "Paste" menu item.

Re: This supernatural phenomena is freaking me out "Terry Farrell" <terryfarrell[ at ]msn.com> 12/29/2008 8:47:17 AM It has to be supernatural but only on your computer <g> It certainly works as it should for me. If I 'Print' it to my default Documents folder, it is at the top of the folder (when viewed in date order) and it automatically opens for viewing in my default graphics editor. Are you saying that you can neither find it in the Default location (as set in the Image Writer properties dialog) nor does it open for viewing in your default graphics editor? -- Terry Farrell - MSWord MVP "JethroUK©" <reply[ at ]the.board> wrote in message news:uZU5NkCaJHA.4480[ at ]TK2MSFTNGP06.phx.gbl...

Re: This supernatural phenomena is freaking me out JethroUK© 12/30/2008 11:41:32 AM I actually deleted all the ghostly files (one being quite large) via dialogue box a day after posting Just tried DIW again and it seems to working find now I have strong suspicion the problem was connected to the "Vista not being able to see some foreign files bug" "Chirag" <Chirag[ at ]discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message news:et5253XaJHA.2124[ at ]TK2MSFTNGP04.phx.gbl...
