Problem exporting as PDF in Quark 5.0

[Mike Koewler]

Every once in a great while, I get a Quark file that I need to use in my
newspaper. I have the Quark 5.0 Demo and in the past, it was easy. Open
the file and export as a pdf. Quark would put "Quark Express Demo"
across the page, which was a piece of cake to delete in Acrobat.

I recently upgraded (downgraded, crossgraded) to Win XP Pro and when I
do the same thing now, the pdf file has a black layer. I can delete this
in Acrobat but today, a text box got deleted also.

My question is what has caused the change? I've tried re-installing the
printers I had before but to no avail. Is there a panacea to get Quark
to export a pdf without putting this layer on the output?

TIA,

Mike

Have you tried uninstalling the demo and then reinstalling it?

My bad. I meant to post this to a different NG and clicked on the wrong
place. I wondered why it didn't show up. :-(

I wondered why it was here but then I saw it was you. I know that some of us
respect each others opinions and will occasionally post something not quite
on topic.

JoAnn,

One NG I subscribe to appears as c.p.prepress (comp.publish.prepress)
and this one that is m.p.p.prepress. There's a little bit of crossover,
but the cpp group is usually more about InDesign, Quark, Acrobat, etc.
