Hi,

Thanks very much for your help with this :)

The following PDFs demonstrate the issue (all hosted on dropbox to
avoid clogging up peoples' e-mail):
* Letter (i.e. the 'overlay'):
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/723910/PR/example-letter.pdf
* Stationary (i.e. the 'underlay'):
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/723910/PR/deadsimple-stationary.pdf
* Result after the code in my previous note is executed:
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/723910/PR/electronic.pdf

I just tried one other thing that occurred to me prior to uploading
these, which I've got a nasty feeling confirms the hypothesis that
it's a white background problem... If I open the 'result' PDF in
Preview on the mac, and then search for 'Example' (which is one of two
words on the stationary), then despite the fact that I can't see the
text, it throws a highlight exactly where the word /would/ have
been...

Assuming that is indeed the case (here's hoping it's not!), then any
pointers as to what to try next? I assume I'd have to somehow try and
'find' the white rectangle and remove it from the PDF? Sounds a bit...
scary! Any other options worth investigating?

Thanks again,


Paul
