Hi Art,

I wasn't clear in my initial description: I'm not trying to make the imported graphic transparent, only the background of my FrameMaker text box (it's actually the "rounded rectangle" shape on the FrameMaker graphics toolbar, into which I then add text) that sits on top of the imported graphic. I was hoping I could modify the FrameMaker object's background to permit the underlying image to partially show through. I can make it a solid color and I can give it no fill at all, but was hoping to give it a partial fill.

Am I still off-base?

Thank you for taking your time to help with this,
Gay
