I haven't used SC import in a long time, but you mention that your stack
contains images.  One thing you might try is deleting any *image* objects in
the Rev stack, save the stack, restart Rev, and then reopen the stack.
Also, make sure the alwaysBuffer of your stack is true.  Let the list know
if the resulting stack is still a problem.
