: the results (don't continue to read if you want a happy end):
pdftex 1.40.3 produces a pdf, that shows no side effects when it's included by the same version of pdftex (1.40.3). if i include that pdf with the current 1.40.9-rc1 i get the wrong color in the transparent area. mh, who to blame? the producer or the collector?
Both. :-{
Please open a bug for pdftex at sarovar and be sure to include all relevant files, please.
mh, just made a 'minimal' example and it looks like this bug is not related to png transparency. this wasn't visible in my real world example (only transparent areas of the png were affected). looks more like a mess of layer priorities to me (just guessing).
context example attached (inclusion.tex is the main file, testpdf.tex is the source for the included pdf).
so before i file a bug report, can someone confirm this? i used pdftex 1.40.9-rc1 for this test.
I don't see any difference with the latest pdftex and with the one provided in TeX Live 2007. But I do see a difference when adding \setupcolors[state=start] to testpdf.tex. In that case it works, though I have no idea what "no color enabled" means to ConTeXt - it usually uses black for just about anything except white. I would not wonder if ConTeXt "forgot" to fill the background with white, but it's hard to tell. Mojca
