Hello, I've printed out http://www.octranspo.com/mapscheds/currenttables/times/041map.htm as both PDF and PS in preparation to import it into FM as a graphic. I first try importing the PDF to FM. The red looks red in the imported graphic. But when I print the FM file to PS, the red is black in the PS output. I made sure that the PS driver has color enabled. I've tried optimizing the PS for speed and portability. I know that output PS is sane because some other color graphics retain their color. I thought the problem might be in the imported PDF. Rather than importing the raw PDF as a graphic, I distilled the PS of the above webpage in hopes of getting "better" PDF. I imported resulting PDF into my FM document. Again, it looks colorful in the FM document, but not in the PS output. Anything I'm doing wrong? Thanks for taking a look. Fred P.S.
