Although I don't know the answer, I will point out that transparency has always been a tricky issue with PostScript and, by extension, PDF. Both standards were designed with paper and printing in mind, where transparency does not exist. Most professional print shops will not accept PDF files with embedded transparency, because it's not clear what that means. -- Tim Roberts, [email protected] Providenza & Boekelheide, Inc.
