I found the same thing, and could only workaround it using
non-transparent images. Tried swfs?

	Thanks Jules
	 
	That is working, except the transparent areas on a png on screen
is showing as black in the printout.

	You can easily print the whole stage using
rootIcon.printScreen(); Possibly not what you want to do.
	 
	For much finer control, you can print the contents of any icon,
probably a page, that contains the certificate's elements. I gave a page
icon the id 'pageIcon', and this works:
	 
	pj = new PrintJob();
	 
	if (pj.start()){
	 
	  if (pj.orientation == "portrait") {
	    // Here, the printArea measurements are appropriate for an
8.5" x 11" portrait page.
	    pj.addPage(pageIcon,{xMin:0,xMax:600,yMin:0,yMax:800});
	  } else {
	    // orientation is "landscape". Now, the printArea
measurements are appropriate for an 11" x 8.5" landscape page.
	    pageAdded =
my_pj.addPage(pageIcon,{xMin:0,xMax:750,yMin:0,yMax:600});
	  }
	 
	  pj.send(); 
	}
	 
	You'll need to play around with the values in the parameters,
and you need to read the flash documentation about printjob, because
there are a few other things to bear in mind, but basically, that's it.
Put the button the user clicks to print the certificate somewhere other
than the page you're print otherwise the certificate will have the
button on it as well.

		What are my options for having a certificate available
in a course that can be printed?
		 
		Any examples available?
		 
		Thanks
