PDF problems

[cobrien11]

Hello,

I've been having a bit of trouble with PDF output in X3, hope someone can help.

When I publish a file that contains images with transparent backgrounds to PDF the resulting file is twice that of when I used V12. Same CDR file & same publish settings, X3 actually remembered the custom 'PDF style' settings I had created in V12. This is a problem because I often have to email the files.
If I print to distiller instead, Draw freezes & I get a PDF with streaks through the images.

This happens with both old CDR files & new ones but only if they have images with transparent backgrounds.

Any ideas?

UPDATE: Incase anyone runs in to similar problem.

I was Publishing with Compatibility set to Acrobat 4, which (as an example) was giving me a 4.45mb PDF. Changing Compatibility to 5 or 6 gives me a 0.52mb PDF.
