missing some page numbers only those contain object from excel
Hello. I am using word 2007 for my document. It's a long document with several page break in it. I have the problem in one section of the document that contain object from other office package (ms excel graph). There are 5 graph objects inserted in this section, the rest pages of the section don't have any external object. I setup footer for page numbers. When I printed the document, the page numbers of the pages with the inserted excel object won't appear. While the rest of the pages in this section and other section are OK. The missing page numbers only occur in some pages that contain excel graph. In the print layout view I can see the pages (the missing one), as well as the other page number. All seem normal, but when I print the document the page numbers (only) in the pages with excel object are missing. I try to see the footer/header of this missing page number, and found that the header and footer were mashed together (joined together). The document essentially looked like this, with the footer above the header and butted up to it on the page. | | | | |___ Footer __ | | Header | | | | | The joined header and footer only occur in the section with excel object. Also I notice that at the end of every pages containing these excel graph, there seem a boundary line instead of word text boundary. If I delete the excel graph, the boundary line also gone. Is this related to text wrapping option? or another else? This is a very frustrating problem. The document was fine until I printed it. I am hoping someone has a solution for this so that I can fix my present document and can ensure that it does not recur. Thank you. Last edited by imeff; 06-24-2015 at 11:45 AM.

Without actually seeing the problem document, it can be difficult for anyone to diagnose the issue. Can you attach a document to a post with some representative data (delete anything sensitive)? You do this via the paperclip symbol on the 'Go Advanced' tab at the bottom of this screen.

I attached the document to be diagnose the issue. I only include 2 section, the one with problem I mentioned before. Since I've deleted some paragraph the layout of the document has a little change, but the issue is still exist.
I've tried to print this attached doc but the page numbers starting from page 7 - 10 are missing. These missing page numbers are where the excel graph inserted. while the page numbers of the other pages (Page 1-6) are printed normally. When enter the footer part of section 2, the header and footer are joined together. Also look at page 7 & 9, where we can see there's a some kind of boundary line (with show text boundaries option enabled). I hope the attached document can be diagnose to find the issue. Thanks |

Your attachment prints fine for me (I 'printed' to a PDF), so you may have a faulty printer driver. I suggest checking your printer manufacturer's website for an updated driver, then uninstalling the existing driver and installing the new one (or even reinstalling the existing one if no new drivers are available).

Actually I have printed the doc to pdf and xps. Pdf output is fine but xps output still gives me some missing page number. Xps output is just exactly as the real printer output. In xps p 7-10 seem to be blocked 'something' that make the page number missing.
I'll try to update the printer driver to see if this will resolve the issue Thanks |

Have you checked that the printer is actually using the same size page as the page sizes throughout the document in Word (you would need to check every Section)?
