Powerpoint has a semi-transparent feature which is very useful to shade in over portions of an image as shown here:
I can move the image from powerpoint to word and print it, and it always looks as desied.
But if I try to print this to PDF, it always turns the semi-transparent portion (the orange and green in attachment) into solid colors which hide everything behind them (in this case the curved flux lines that are supposed to show through).
I tried it using:
* Adobe Acrobat 7.0 Professional (sets up a print drive to send to Adobe PDF)
* pdf995
*PrimoPDF
Each time the results were the same. The Adobe PDF shows the semi-transparent regions as solid (opaque).
Any ideas how to fix this? I have a very large multi-document master word file that I need to consolidate into a PDF and I can't get these figures to convert right.
