I have the VERY same problem. I have been having to dump my current doc and starting over because of the apparent impossibility of removing empty/unwanted figures once they're created. On Thursday 13 September 2001 11:07 am, Ivan Storgaard Vogelius wrote: > Hi! > Im just about to go nuts

I'm actually running a Cooker system so I am beyond 8.0 (and closer to 8.1). In any case, I haven't even tried printing because the gv image clearly show me that the right side of the table is way too close to the right page margin - the printer will clip it and cannot print that close to the
