Framemaker 8 document won't print photo

[Art Campbell]

OK, if Frame can generate a PDF of the document with the photo in
place, it's unlikely to be Frame that's the problem. Which would leave
your physical printer or something else in the system as suspects.

Second, although you're copying the JPG in, that's not a recommended
way to handle most graphics and may be part of the problem, if your
system doesn't have enough RAM or other resources to handle it. Try
importing the graphic by reference, and also opening the JPG in a
graphics program and saving it out as a new file and perhaps a new
file format.

Can you provide more details on your system, RAM, OS, and whatever
printer you're using?
