The first question may be an issue with your printer rather than XL 2007, and
so can't really be answered here.

As for the second question: previous versions of XL could handle many fewer
colors than does XL 2007, so not all colors applied to XL 2007 will show up
in documents opened in previous versions.

printed copies. Additionally, the colors don't translate iinto other colors n
older Excel versions. Is there a fix for this ?
