AppleWorks 6: Word Processing Documents Do Not Print When Multiple Documents Are Open

Symptom

After clicking Print in the Print dialog, the document does not print.


Solution

This occurs specifically when you have an AppleWorks document (or multiple documents) already open and then choose Open from the File menu in AppleWorks to open another existing word processing file.

To be able to print the word processing document:

1. Click once anywhere outside of the document window.
2. Click once on the document you would like to print.
3. Choose Print from the File menu.
