    my document that i save us coming up blank

    Hi Jude,

    If a saved document is coming up blank when opening it, it could be that the document is corrupted when it was saved, or that the document was not properly saved, etc. For us to isolate the issue about a document that opens up blank, kindly respond to the
    question below:

    • What application are you using to open or save the document?
    • Is the issue specific to one document or with every document that you open?

    We look forward to your response.
