Hi Everyone - We're considering whether to upgrade to FM9 or InDesign, now that ID can do cross-refs and indexing. One of the reasons I've been against FM is that when we put graphics in our manuals, we link them from PPT slides so that they update live whenever changes are made to the slides. This always works perfectly unless the slide contains transparency. In which case, the transparent part of the graphic PDFs as an opaque square, regardless of the actual shape of the object. When we've contacted Adobe about this in the past, we've been told that FM doesn't support transparency. I can't seem to find where transparency support is a major addition to FM9...can anyone tell me if it has been addressed in this latest version? Thank you!
