Hi Jeff,

If you want the space occupied by the nonprinting text to collapse during
printing, then Hidden is the only attribute you can use.

If it's ok to maintain the space, you can define a character style that you
apply to each area of nonprinting text. Change the style's font color to
white, print, and change the color back to black. A macro can do all the
color changes and printing in one step. Reply if you need more information.
