Lea,
The bug that I passed along the info on is a result of using SaveAs PDF
from FM 9, which is intended to generate clean CMYK. As reported, IF the
Frame file contains PDFs already, it doesn't work well. The work-around,
until a patch is released to fix it, is to embed another file format such as
EPS, which apparently works fine.
