Scott, thanks for the suggestion. Unfortunately Opaque has no effect on
the issue.

Yea, there a bunch of work around where the simplest seems to just do an
'export snapshot' and print the resulting image (hiding the field
entirely for printing), but I'd before I switch to levels of workarounds
like thsi, I want to be sure thsi really is a bug and report it to RunRev.

That's one reason I was asking if any else has either experienced this
issue. OR, I guess I should have asked if anyone else can reproduce this
issue.
