On Windows PM 7 I have produced a 60-page chapter for an illustrated book. The diagrams comprise a paper filled line rectangle, with a black filled rectangle behind it. The black rectangle is nudged to the right and to the bottom, to create a black drop shadow. I placed the eps diagram over it, to the front layer.

I need to produce pdf file. So, I generated a postscript file; then used Adobe 9 distiller to produce a pdf.

Everything is perfect up to page 28. After this page, all of the diagrams show the black rectangle through the paper-filled ones.

I have double-checked PageMaker diagrams, and even tried to generate just one of the rogue pages but it still shows the black rectangle in Adobe Reader. All text and fonts are perfect.

Please, any help appreciated! Thanks

John
