Make sure the overlap COUNT is set. The default value is 2. You will not see an overlap on the first page. You only see the overlap when it's not the first time those stitches were shown. The top group of pages will only have the overlap on the left side (after the first). Subsequent "rows" will have them on the top and those after the first in the row will have it on the top and left.

I have never had it fail and I rarely have other than white backgrounds. I print just symbols and use color only for the backstitch lines.

The background for the stitching and the background for the printing are two totally different issues. You don't see the overlapping while you create the patterns, only for the printing.

Maybe I'm not fully understanding what you are doing.

Maybe you should email me and then send attachments (screenshots or scans) so I can see what you are really doing.

OK let me see if you understand this better
I open a new grid pattern I put words on it I click on preview print, red boxes for overlapping are there.

OK I open new grid pattern I change background to soft white put words on it click on preview print, there's no red boxes ??

I open grid pattern I change background to Aran put words on it, click on print preview, there's gray boxes on it ..

Why can't I get red boxes on white background ??
and my settings are red boxes 2 page overlap ???

Where do you set the overlap to red?

I've replied to your series of PDFs. They don't really help. I do encourage you to have someone help you make some screenshots showing the problem.

Good Luck,



Diane

It may be a bug. the default is Black foreground and white background.

I have no idea because print is supposed to be independent of the display.
