Hello folks,
I am using an image to embed the logo at the top of the document. The background of my document is gray, and when I render the document, the logo shows up with a white background, over the gray background. Something similar to the \frame command. My logo image was converted from PSD (Photoshop PSD) to PDF, and I have preserved the tranparent background so that I could layer it over a background and it picks the background color instead of the white background.
How do I embed my image in the document so that the background stays the background color of the document? What am I doing wrong?
I don't know if what you did is supposed to work or not, but I assume it is. That leaves the possibility that Adobe's "transparent" is not properly understood by pdftex. I normally convert such images to png with alpha, that works fine for screen and (laser)print. For professional applications, you may run into trouble with color conversions, but that is true for most pdf(tex) output that contains any kind of transparency. Good luck, Taco
