Consider the following scenario:
- You have a Windows Vista-based computer that has an XPS printer driver installed.
- On this computer, you print a slide presentation from Microsoft Office PowerPoint 2007, from Microsoft Office PowerPoint 2003, or from Microsoft PowerPoint 2002.
In this scenario, certain colors in graphics objects in the slide presentation may not be printed as expected.
Also, this problem may occur in any application that uses a Graphics Device Interface (GDI)-to-XPS conversion process.
To work around this problem, copy the graphics objects that trigger this problem, and then paste them into a blank Microsoft Office Word document. If this Word document prints correctly from an XPS printer driver, copy the graphics objects from the Word document, and then paste them into a PowerPoint slide. Then, print the PowerPoint slide.
Microsoft has confirmed that this is a problem in the Microsoft products that are listed in the "Applies to" section.
