Dov,
Thank you for your comments. I wanted to be accurate, and I checked with
our DTP person to tell me exactly what the matter was; in fact, we were
having Acrobat Preflight problems with **.ai** files.
There were NO problems with **.eps** files (yes, they are imported as

We tried .ai, but it was the same; and since we have a lot of graphics,
we don't want to be saving them in .pdf.
I'm still curious why this happens, but for the practical matter at hand,
we decided to use 0.21 pts for minimum line width in our graphics.

try one of the dedicated snapshot programs such as SnagIt. I usually
save as a .png file, which imports into FM nicely and works well for
both print and online without conversion.

Have you dropped the Graphic "Print Quality" setting of your Distiller printer
(in both places in the printer properties)? We had to drop ours to 300dpi to
solve that problem, but it's been a permanent reliable fix.
