Unsolveable Problem--$50 Reward for Answer

I am not smart enough to solve this. $50 bucks to anyone who can. I need a MC to print 6 INDIVIDUAL pages of content. I have external jpgs loaded into frame/page 2 adn frame/page 6. When i print the pages, the jpg's never show up. I hve used loops to ensure they are loaded and all of that, but when the print is called they turn up blank anyway. I need the print to be called from a button. The ONLY way i have gotten the pics to print is to put the button directly on the frame the pics are on. This is no good because the pics in the alternate frame don't print and it messes up the logical order fo the printouts. I am desperate for a fix and will pay quickly. Somebody out there can solve this, i am positive! Using MX2004 Pro.

The pics get loaded only upon entering the frame .. as you corectly "discovered" :)
If you load the jpg into a target MC this will get distroyed after exiting the frame.
I mean a movie loaded on a target gets automatically unloaded upon exiting the frame.
A movie loaded on a level must be unloaded with an unloadMovieClip action.

This is why your jpg's won't print ... because they aren't actually there.

the loadMovieClip action dosen't do only the loading but also the linking part (the jpg to the target)
Even if you put the loop ... and let's say the 2nd time the movie plays you don't see the actual "loading" and the jpg appears to be in the right spot (already loaded) it dosen't mean it was loaded before entering that frame.

Soo.. i don't think you can do this with external jpgs
But I may be worng or somebody around may have a workaround. I'm curious too :)

Hope it helps ;)
