FW: Problems w/frame 5.5 and PDF conversions in WinNT

[Linda Merrifield <linda -dot- merrifield -at- CITA -dot- COM>]

The problem was in the black box behind the text box with the report.
Even though it was black, when I changed the color to white, it had a
copy of the report also. I had to remove the text from the shadow box
and change the color back to black. Problem solved!
