My kludge: export as pdf 1.4 preserving the transparencies, then print to file from Acrobat Reader thus flattening everything, then do ps2pdf13 on the resulting Postcript print file. Or if the printer insists on pdf X/1-a:2001 use Pstill (shareware) with an improbably long set of switches. -- John Culleton "Create Book Covers with Scribus" http://www.booklocker.com/books/4055.html
