Printing Mirror Image-Excel

Printing Mirror Image-Excel

Printing Mirror Image-Excel

(OP)
I'm having problems printing SW drawings with embedded Excel files. It's printing a mirror image of the excel spreadsheet at random. It's a multi-sheet drawing with my parts list (not link to an assembly) on sheets 2 and 3. Other users are having the same problems and the only work around is using print preview and toggling through the sheets until it pictorially switches back.

Weird....

P.S. It also takes 1.5 min to print out these embedded Excel parts list. Somethings is going on.

RE: Printing Mirror Image-Excel

Is it mirroring the text also?
Are the Excel spreadsheets linked to a Excel file somewhere else, or alone on the dwg? I suggest not having them linked if you can.
Maybe try updating your video card driver. It should be 6.14.10.7184.
