WD: Can't Print More Than One Page of Embedded Objects

ID: Q110331

The information in this article applies to:

• Microsoft Word for the Macintosh, versions 5.0, 5.1, 5.1a, 6.0, 6.0.1, 6.0.1a
• Microsoft Word for Windows, versions 2.0, 2.0a, 2.0a-CD, 2.0b, 2.0c, 6.0, 6.0a, 6.0c
• Microsoft Word for Windows NT, version 6.0
• Microsoft Word for Windows 95, versions 7.0, 7.0a
• Microsoft Word 98 Macintosh Edition

SYMPTOMS

Microsoft Word displays or prints an embedded object on a single page (even if the embedded object spans multiple pages).

CAUSE

In Word, embedded objects are limited to one page.

This behavior is by design. Microsoft Word is unable to divide the display representation of embedded objects larger than one page.

MORE INFORMATION

Objects of the Word document class display or print one page of an embedded object. When double-clicked, the entire object appears in the object window. Objects of the Microsoft Excel worksheet class display all of the information in the object but truncate the text when printed.
