Containers not printing

I'm having a little problem with some gifs and jpegs in containers...on screen they look fine and dandy but the little buggers wont print :)

I've tried printing from Browse mode, Preview Mode, made sure they are set to print from the Sliding/Printing menu, tried printing to different lasers and creating a postscript file....in short I am out of ideas.

(The container field uses a calculation to determine its contents ie if x=1 then green square, x=2 then red triangle.)

Any suggestions?

May be your pictures are not RGB. I advise you to try reexport images as RGB by any picture editor.

Thanks so far...

I cant upload a sample database because my Boss wont allow it...and its about 3MB without records.

And yes my pics are RGB as saved from ImageReady.

Well here is the calucation....

If (record_lock = 0; admin::symbols[9] ; admin::symbols[10] )

(admin::symbols is a repeating container field that holds the graphics)

All other container fields that rely on lookups or user input print fine.

Tried changing the storage options and it didn't help.

One curious feature of my problem....if i make the size of the containers BIG and ask FM to stretch the graphics they print ok...
