Vanishing Table Heading Cells

[Jim Light]

The text is fine in FM.
The properties of the text in the PDF are the same for the invisible
text as for the visible text. (!!!)

I tried re-importing table definitions, but that didn't help.

I copied the text to a new template and that didn't help.

I made a copy of a good table and copied the body rows into it. (These
tables have the same heading rows, so I can use a good one and just
change the body rows). This worked twice and then it didn't work. About
half of my table collection has this weird problem. 

At this point I am copying a good one and using it to recreate a bad one
over and over until they are all OK.

What on Earth is going on???

Just to be clear: the text is fine in FM, it just disappears in the PDF?

With the TouchUp Text Tool selected, click in or select the "invisible"
text, right-click, and select Properties. Take a look at the info on the
Text tab, especially the font and fill. See if that gives you any hints.


<shrug />Can it wait until Monday? It's almost beer-thirty here. ;-)
