This sounds strange, but may be due to the fact that you may have used the setup which uses white letters on colored background - which is not really a feature of PPower4, but a setup in some demo documents. This color setup may be active when you include the pdf figure and because pdf often does not specify a default color of its own in the beginning, because the default should be reasonable, the current color will survive until the next color change. Just select the proper color you want for your axes before including the figure and everything should be fine. If you change the current color in the other copy and then create a pdf from it the effect should be similar.
