Hi All,

I have encounter an issue when converting my document into PDF via saving as PDF.
Some of the images specifically SmartDesign Objects are missing after converting to PDF.
I have already ticked the Display options "Print drawings created in Word"
User's image

See below:

Hope you can help me figure out this concern.

    Hi,

    I cannot reproduce your problem, I suggest you go to File- Account and provide the version number here:

    User's image

    I also suggest you check if the print preview is also available for the shape.

    Then you can try to copy or create a new Word document with the shape and check the result.

    Please try this method and let me know the result here, I’m glad to help and follow up your reply.
