Hi Brutus and Bob

You are both so helpful. Thank you.
As you say, can you imagine if I gave the go-ahead to have all 100 copies of books printed; only to find out too late the black rectangles.

After your explanation, I now realise why this happened after page 30 in Chapter 4. I called up Chapter 3 (whose 30 pages were okay) and saved it as Chap 4. Then added pages accordingly. The default when adding pages must be a ticked paper fill box in PageMaker!

Actually Bob, I purchased Indesign just before Christmas but have not yet got around to using it. I was half-way through the PageMaker project so continued with that. I will now switch over to Indesign and dump PageMaker!

Many years ago I always worked with a postscipt file and gave that to printers. I didn't realise there were so many versions of PDF! Apparently mine has to conform to PDFx-1a 2001 to keep the printer happy!

Regarding my Acrobat 9 Pro I don't find it very user friendly. I still can't find the Overprint Preview.

Best wishes and thanks again for your help and understanding.
