Hi, can you please give some information on your OS (Linux, Windows or Mac OS)? I experienced a similar problem using Linux. It appeared to have to do with one of the many tabs that are available in the printer (or is it printing) menu.

Okay, than I'm afraid that I can not help you really. Only suggestion I can come up with is though: check any and all windows or tabs that control your printer and maybe try an export to bitmap and test print that one as well. Or . . . was that what you did already to demonstrate your problem?
Maybe one other option: sent me your troubled file (PM would do, I think) so that I can try to replicate your "weird" print.

iv tried all kinds of things even tried using corel 12 but moving to any other format produces some really bizarre things. the image 2 is a pdf 995 file. printing using adobe came up with a weird print. exporting to bitmap provides an unacceptable image. ill check the tabs but if that doesnt work i guess ill have to start over.

Did you use Photoshop CS to print to pdf? And what is the original file?
One thing I would try: save to desktop as jpg then save as pdf.

hi,
A possibility is an embed colour profile into the pdf and not picked up / applied by the printer driver - which would explain all differences between software. You can open the pdf with gimp (or photoshop), it will warns you, apply the profile or not, do what's best, then export each layers a separate jpg. It could also be images included into the pdf that use indexed colours or alpha channel (transparent). Software have to choose a default colour, which is white for some, black for others. Open with gimp, convert to rgb then save as jpg. This will produce a full colour image without transparency (replaced with the current tool's colour, white by default). If this is a free model you may post a link so we can check that file.

In Inkscape, you do a file save as, and select the pdf file type.
Give that a shot. Gary
