I mask an image in photoshop and delete the background to create a transparent background. I save it as a photoshop file. I then bring the image with the transparent background into illustrator (these are CS versions) with a colored background -the image looks fine but when it is printed there is a light box where the transparent part of the image was. I am in school and all the students and all the teachers cannot figure out the problem so if anyone can figure it out you would be helping alot of people. i've tried cutting and pasting the object into illustrator but I still get the same result. Someone please help this is driving me crazy! Thanks thanks thanks
