I have been producing a monthly publication which has been going off to the
printer as a pdf (using the add-in that microsoft provde) happily for over a
year. About a week ago I tried to create the new issue and when I sent it to
PDF as I normally do I found the following problems:
1) Any jpeg that I had inserted with a transparent background was now
appearing with a solid background - either white or black
2) Previously embedded fonts that were reversed on a coloured background now
appeared with a white background

I have tried removing and reinstalling both Publisher 2007 and the add-in to
no avail. I have purchased NovaPDF in the hope that it might help and it did
- it solved the background and font problem - but created another problem. My
newsletter is 6 fold to A4 - I had no problem printing it as two custom size
pages using the pdf add-on, however, Publisher 2007 defaults to "tiled" no
matter what page size I select as the page size in the NovaPDF printer setup
the tiling over-rides it and I end up with 12 pages of cut up pieces.

If ANYONE can help I'd be so appreciative!

Are you using the same newsletter over and over. For some reason Publisher will
show signs of corruption if this is the case. Copy/paste your objects into a new
publication or start from scratch. jpg images do not support transparency. If
you are using the transparency tool in Publisher, right-click the image after
you apply the transparency, save as a picture, use the .png format. Re-insert
into your document.

The Microsoft add-in has a custom size setup. Does your NovaPDF have custom size
options? You may have to re-setup your print on the Print screen.

Is your stock A3? I'm not sure I know what you mean by 6 fold.
