Adobe InDesign/Text not appearing when trying to print

Question
I've design an A0 size poster with several text boxes. When I try to print, 3 boxes which have text show no text in the print preview. Every other text box appears normal. I converted it to PDF for printing and oddly the same 3 boxes shows no text. It seems like no one has experienced this

Answer
Hi Nabeel,

First make sure the text boxes are supposed to print. Select a text box and go to Windows>Attributes and make sure nonprinting is unchecked.

If that is okay, then it may be a font problem. Try changing the font.

Hope this helps,
