I have an FM file with a colored PDF figure (imported by Ref). (Don't
ask why I have the PDF figures and not tif or something more suitable,
currrently, that's what the client has).
The FM file looks fine.
Then, after I PDF the FM file (with the PDF figure/s) in it, my PDF
figures come out in black and white, but not colored. The rest of the
PDF is fine, including the other fig's (tif or eps or other).
I'm running FM 6 on Window 2000, acrobat 6 and/or 7 were used to
create the PDF with the same job options on all apps.
When you import a PDF into FrameMaker, it is converted in the background to
EPS, and then the EPS result is used.
This conversion is not full-proof. I don't generally use PDF as a graphic
format, but I did come across color distortions in imported PDFs (and some
other abnormalities).
I recommend that you try the following: open the PDF figure in Acrobat,
export it to EPS from within Acrobat, and then import the EPS into FrameMaker.
