Overview

If you are trying to print an Invoice/Order Acknowledgement, etc., and they normally open in Word so that you can print them from there, but when trying to print, Word opens but is blank, the advice below should help you to resolve this issue.


What causes this to happen?

This is a common error with .rtf (Rich Text Format) files. Unfortunately, the only way to rectify this is to revert to a previous version before you made the changes that triggered the error.


What do you recommend I do to fix this?​

We would advise that if you wish to amend .rtf templates, then to save often, to prevent these errors from having too much of an effect.
