Weird results when printing a diagram in SQL Server 2005

Hi all,

I have a diagram that I'm trying to print. I'm getting a weird result on paper.

I have 3 tables on the same paper. I use the standard view mode in order to see "column name", "condensed type" and "nullable" columns. When the print comes out, the first 5 rows of the "column name" column are masked by some sort of drawing. It's as if there was another table on top of the one I'm printing, like you can see the bottom right corner of it just hiding the 5 rows of the "column name" column. What is even more weird is that have the exact same problem on the 3 tables I'm printing.

This "drawing" appears to be of fixed size because as I increase the width of the first column, the width of the drawing doesn't increase, so if the width of the first column is very small, the drawing goes also on top of the next colum "condensed type."

Now, if I increase the height of the table and allow white space between the last row and the table border, I also get almost the same drawing in the white space. But this time, it's only as if the right side of this mysterious "table" that appears (no corners.)

I'm sorry for all this explanation but I cannot describe it better than that.

Does anybody know if there is a fix to this problem. I'm getting the exact same results from SQL Server Management Studio and from inside Visual Studio 2005. I have SP1 for SQL Server Tool and Workstation components 2005 ENU (KB913090) installed, as well as SP1 for SQL Server Database Services 2005 ENU (KB913090.)

Thanks,
Talal
