Hello, Lisa This sounds like a the PDF to PostScript transparency issue - a wider issue with our industry that often causes designers grief. The basic issue is that PDF allows for the display of elements with effects such as partial transparency on them but this effect cannot be expressed in PostScript based print-streams. To resolve, try flattening your PDF template in Acrobat prior to composing the output. To flatten, look under Tools -> Print Production -> Transparency Flattening (in Acrobat 7). The dialogue that opens up will allow you to detect your transparency and control how it is to be flattened (which is a rasterization process for these transparent vector elements). After you've flattened the PDF template, try composing again and seeing if it prints correctly on your press. --Mark Hilger Product Manager Printable Technologies, Inc. +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+- Calling all FP Web Users!
