I am having trouble inserting a file as printouts. A box keeps popping up
saying "The file could not be inserted. There may be a problem with the
file, or you may not have the right program installed."

I'm not sure what the problem is because it's a pdf file that I want to
insert. I have done this before and did not have any problem. I have window
vista. Please help me make sense of this. Thanks!

Does the "Send to OneNote" printer work?

Could it be that you are running under a 64-bit OS?

I have a similar problem ... (am a Windows Vista 64-bit user) ... The Insert
Files as Printouts option appears only in gray and therefore is not an option
for selection at all ... Any advice?

This feature depends on the "Send to OneNote" printer being installed.
And ON2007 does not come with this printer.

For the reasons pls see:
