That was much faster than fixing the code. :-)<div> —Jennifer<div><br><div><div>On Oct 15, 2015, at 11:13 AM, Stephen McMillan <<a href="mailto:smcmillan@planalytics.com">smcmillan@planalytics.com</a>> wrote:</div><br class="Apple-interchange-newline"><blockquote type="cite"><div dir="ltr">Miquel,<div><br></div><div>Try this: first rename your background image so that there are no upper-case characters (B in this case), then try your printim again.
