Reverse logo not printing

I have a BW logo created in Illustrator that contains shapes and outlined type. When I reverse the black and white sections of the logo -- in order to make a reverse logo to run on top of a black background -- several portions no longer print. As in not not even showing up in my print settings viewer and not showing up on the paper.
If you go to www.wga.org, you will see the logo is a box on top of a stroked box with type on top of the first box and next to it. (This is just to show you the logo; I am working on a print project, not on the Web page.) It is the stroke and the words to the right of the boxes that are not printing.
Do you have any suggestions on where I should go with this? TIA

    Hi,
         I am able to see the logo for all other smart forms i have developed using the same printer. But the problem is only with this Form. If the printer settings are not correct  i should not be able to get the output for any form using that printer.

  • Logo not printing properly in Invoice converted to PDF and emailed

    Hello,
    I am having a problem with a programming issue and have searched lots of forums but have found no solutions.  We are on 4.7 and are not likely to upgrade any time soon.  Therefore, I don't think any of the newer solutions are gonna work for me.  I believe that I'm stuck using a couple of function modules to get t he job done.  I am attempting to modify our Invoice Print program (uses SAPscript, not SmartForms) to have the output converted into a PDF file and then attached to an email that is then sent to the customer.  Everything is working fine except for the company logo.  It has been uploaded via SE78.  It is a 24-bit bitmap file.  I have played around with the DPI to have it appear correctly on the form.  I added a FM GUI_DOWNLOAD step to verify that it is saved to my hard drive correctly.  The PDF file saved t o my hard drive appears normally in Adobe Acrobat and Adobe Reader.  So the problem occurs sometime after that.  I have a routine wherein I convert is from 132 to 255 bytes.  I then use FM SO_DOCUMENT_SEND_API1 to send it.  When I swap the customer's email address to my own personal external emal address, the resultant email has an attached PDF file but the company logo is garbage. The top portion of the logo looks good and then at some point in the lower portion is appears as squiggly lines.  This is not acceptable, of course.  I have included the relevent code below:

    Hi Friend ,
    I hav gone through your code ...  I have one Question why you are  changing from 132 to 255.inside your program
    if there is a purpose then , please can you change your company logo Image size accordingly  and uploaded it into SAP mime repository using se78.then your program let it convert from 132 to 255. definely you will see some change's in the Logo,then keep on adjusting you can acheive you result.
    sometime the Image size also plays major role ,which we need to modify the sizes of image.
    I am giving you an link which is already there  but still from myside  , just compare the code  .

  • Logos not printing in SAPScript in background

    Hi all,
    Company logo is part of check printing, which is developed using SAPSCript.
    The printed checks have the logo, if the job is run from foreground.
    But, when check printing is scheduled, it is not getting printed.  Ideally, check printing will be a scheduled process only.
    Also, this issue happens with certain users only.  Can anybody help me in identifying the auth object that relates to logos?

  • Logo not printing

    Hi I am not able to print the logo in scripts. I have tried with another images. Nothing is working. Can anyone help me.what might be the problem.

    Hi Sam,
    Please check the following process in case you missed something.
    For uploading a LOGO in Scripts there are a series of steps to be followed.
    STEP 1:
    Go to SE38, enter the program name "RSTXLDMC" and execute it.
    STEP 2:
    On executing this program it display a new session where you need to mention your Logo name.
    For this enter your Logo name in the select option "Param. for standard text->Text Name".
    The name given here should begin with 'Y' or 'Z' .Eg: YLOGO or ZLOGO.
    On execution this it will ask for the location where your logo is stored.The logo should be of type .TIFF extension.(Tag Image File Format -TIFF)
    Once the location is specified the .TIFF file gets uploaded and stored as a text element in SO10 and a new session is shown which say if the logo is successfully saved or not.
    STEP 3:
    TO view your logo go to the TCode SO10 mention your file name i.e.,YLOGO or ZLOGO and click on print preview.This diaplays your LOGO.
    TO BE PROCESSES IN SE71.
    To display output in scripts we need to maintain a page windows in a page.
    Say for example we a Page Window with name LOGO.
    Double click on this and traverse through the following menu : Edit -> text Elements.
    Now enter the command line(/:)in the "Tag Column" and traverse through the following menu :
    Insert -> Text ->Standard.
    Mention the Logo Name in our case it is either YLOGO or ZLOGO.On doing this the logo will be inserted in the Text Elements with the message as follows:
    INCLUDE ZLOGO OBJECT TEXT ID ST.
    Activate and execute the same.

  • Logo not printing in PDF form, when being printing from the B2b Portal

    Hello -
       I have a smartform, in our CRM 4.0 system. When I go into transaction smartforms, the logo shows up in the preview of the smartform.

  • PDF/X1a with a logo containing a colorized grayscale tiff not printing properly

    I have a 3 color logo: black, PMS 200U, and PMS 1955U. The logo was built in Illustrator and I have placed grayscale tiff ontop of it. The grayscale tiff is a stipple (dots) effect that I colorized to PMS 1955U in Illustrator, masked it out on top of the logo, and set it to multiply. Within Illustrator, the separations look good and it prints fine when printing directly out of illustrator.
    The problem is when I export it to a PDF/x1a and try to print it, it doesn't print properly. Printing from acrobat, it only previews and prints the PMS 1955U stipple and black. The flat PMS 200U under the tiff doesn't print. I've tried bitmapping the photoshop file and making the stipple monochromatic and still doesn't seem to work when exporting to a PDF and printing.
    Funny thing is, when I do the whole process for the CMYK logo (not PMS), it all prints out fine as a PDF/x1a.
    Any ideas on how to get the logo to export and print properly?
    Any help is much appreciated!!

    Press quality uses PDF version 1.4 which supports transparency while PDF/X-1a uses PDF version 1.3 which requires transparency to be flattened.
    For your issue, try enable Overprint Preview in Acrobat preferences and see you are getting the expected results, use Output Preview panel in Acrobat to turn off individual plate to see if your missing PMS 200U is listed and flat color appears.
    If the above does not works please send me the files to reproduce this issue at my end, i will send my email in private message to you.

  • LOGO is not printing correctly in Production but printing correctly in Qual

    Hi Friends,
    I am an ABAPER.
    In Scripts I had a logo. Problem is in development and quality systems it is printing correctly but it is not printing correctly in Production system. I have tested all the development, quality & Production systems with the same printer. Experts please guide me where exactly the problem is how to solve it. Good points will be rewarded for related solutions.
    Hi Nageswar,
    The exact problem is the logo is alphabetical characters only, but for example APPLE is the logo. The word Heading 1: APPLE. is in Coloured BOLD letters. In development and quality it is printing as it was original logo. But in Production the letters for APPLE is printing in such a way that A is printing as dotted letter A and so on for PPLE. But in quality and development is working fine Printing as BOLD letters.
    Finally want to mention that APPLE is a scanned logo. Its properties were same in three systems i.e, development, quality and production.
    Experts please help me.

  • Why has part of an image not printed from pdf file?

    Hi, I have recently used Indesign to do the layout for a press advertisement. I exported the file as a High Quality pdf file to send to the printer. The logo on the advertisement  has not printed out correctly - the text part of the logo is showing but not the surrounding graphic. When you export and view the pdf file onscreen, everything looks fine. The graphic part of the logo is white - would this have anything to do with why it has not printed? What options should I have checked/unchecked to make sure the pdf prints exactly as it is seen onscreen or is it a problem with the logo file itself?
    I would appreciate any assistance.

    Hi
    if the logo is placed in front of the tint/backgrounds, if it's reverse the tint/background same color will be applied and the percentage of the color has been changed to 0%. it will works fine rather than changing the overprint/knockout. hopes it works.
    I'm afraid I don't understand waht you are trying to say here. The white in a logo should generally never be set to overprint. The only way I can think of to get any interaction between a backgorund and a white overprint is to use a blending mode, and that would affect the other colors as well, typically not what you want in a logo situation.
    This is a mistake in the construction of the original art, not a problem at can be fixed directly in ID.

    This HP C6150 does print pictures, but suddenly stopped printing black text.
    HOWEVER, the test prints will print in black with the Windows Logo, but will not print any associated text.
    Odd.  It just suddenly stopped printing.
    Variables:
    C6150 All in One - No other problems for two years.
    Using refilled ink cartridges from outside source. (not my decision)
    Ink is full.  No other changes made in last three days.
    Troubleshooting Steps:
    Uninstalled and then re-installed software in entirety.
    Put in 'new' (refilled) cartridge for black and magenta.
    Tried (not sure if successful) soft reset.
    Tried cleaning the print cartridge with 'Q-Tip' and distilled water.
    Have not yet spent money on new OEM print cartridges.  That is next step unless other suggestions merit.
    Possibilities:
    It may be the refilled cartridges, but they've worked so well in the past.
    The cartridge prior to the recent replacement was working fine and was not yet out of ink.
    The print head might be damaged.  But this should/would affect all black printing and this is not the case.
    Were the driver corrupt, the reinstall should have fixed it ... you'd think.
    So, we're looking for some suggestions prior to going out and getting a new printer.
    Thanks again, in advance, for constructive non-judgmental suggestions.

    The likely cause is the black ink is not printing at all.  When printing graphics (like the Windows Test Page) black is made from mixing the color ink.  I would suggest printing an internal diagnostic test page as shown in this page.  Does the black block print?  If not then clean the printheads as described here.
