Publisher 2007's PDF converter removes transparency from pictures.

Hello,

I really would appreciate any help in the following issue.

I have some gif pictures in my publisher 2007 document that are transparent
(tried this with png pictures too). Everything looks good when I print the
document to a printer. But if I use Microsoft's built-in PDF converter then
the transparancy becomes "white" and that is not good. My printer requires a
PDF and can't work from publisher 2007 files.

Any suggestions on how to STOP publisher from getting rid of the
transparency??

Thanks!

I'm not seeing this. When you move the image over another object, is the
transparency apparent? When you setup the PDF do you click change button and
look at the different settings under Advanced? Are you getting a message if you
select Commercial printing?

I am not getting a "message" when i convert to PDF. It's just the pictures
are loosing their transparency and the background is becoming white which
does not look correct. Word Art does not have that problem. Only pictures
with transparency.

Can you send me one of the pictures? Are these pictures from your Organizer or
are you pasting rather than inserting them from elsewhere?
