I actually deleted all the ghostly files (one being quite large) via
dialogue box a day after posting

Just tried DIW again and it seems to working find now

I have strong suspicion the problem was connected to the "Vista not being
able to see some foreign files bug"

Hi,

Try the following and see if you can retrieve the file:
1. Go to the Save As dialog box of Document Image Writer.
2. Right-click the file and select "Cut" menu item.
3. Get rid of the Save As dialog box and show the Desktop.
4. Right-click on Windows Desktop and click "Paste" menu item.

Does this get you your file?

Posted about this a few times but with no explanations, so i can only put
this down to the supernatural

Everytime I try to print using Microsoft Office Document Image Writer
(hence post to ms office newsgroups) - It goes through the motions (save
a printout as a file)

but the file (a .tiff file) cannot be seen by Vista (as if it doesn't
exist)

Yet! (and here is the part that freaks me out)

The files can clearly be seen *only* by Microsoft Office Document Image
Writer save as dialogue box

Here you can clearly see one dating back as far as 29th Sept 2008 visible
through a dialogue box i opened today (some 3 months later)

Has anyone got any explanations or is this supernatural phenomena?

Failing that - I use a 'Windows' image writer at work and that works
fine - Anybody know what it's called?
