Maybe FrameMaker 7 is passing part of the drop shadow information
unchanged because of something added to Illustrator after 2002 that it
doesn't know how to process.

I tried ensuring that the drop shadow was created by a filer rather than an
effect, and imported the illustration as a PDF. The problem remained.
I then tried importing as an .eps: problem fixed.

First off, I'm glad you found a workaround.
EPS, AI, and PDF are all essentially the same file with different options, so I
still wonder what the main issue is.

Coming into this late, but I believe this is an Illustrator issue, which has
been solved with newer versions.

There is no need to feel guilty about printing!

Thanks Dov. No... I'm on ancient versions here, Acrobat Pro 6
free to print this e-mail if your needs dictate hard copy.

As you sort of hinted, remove the drop shadow and the problem goes away. But

Try saving the drop shadows as EPS. (I use EPS for all my FrameMaker
graphics.) FrameMaker seems to handle EPS graphics best of all-- except
that the preview is low resolution. I've used EPS drop shadows that I
created in Photoshop without problems.

For all practical purposes, AI=PDF=AI, so I doubt that's the issue.
I used to have 4/c issues with PS-generated drop shadows, so it wasn't too much
of a stretch to think that was the problem. Is the d/s an effect, or a filter?
Filters will likely give you more control and less problems.
