Dear Ivan,

Thanks so much for mentioning this -- indeed it was PDFs from LaTeX,  
and by using

   \hypersetup{pdfborder=0 0 0}

I was able to get rid of the boxes.  I'm wondering whether what  
happened was an update in my hyperref package version at some  
point...though I could have sworn that several months ago, boxes  
showed up in Adobe Reader but not in Skim.

At any rate, many thanks.

Roger
