Flash 8/AS 2.0 - Print Problem: Effects dropped from TextFields

Hi!

I have a movie with a formatted TextField on it. When I print it using the printJob function (or the print(), printNum(), printBitMapNum() functions), most of the effects are not printed.

For example: I have a textfield that is Arial Bold font, color of red, underlined, with a black DropShadow. The field looks great on my screen, but when I print it, the DropShadow is gone, the underline is very faint. I am alternately printing directly to Adobe and to an HP printer. The results are the same in either case.

Has anyone encountered this issue?

Any assistance would be appreciated.

Thanks!
