I just finished a yearbook job using Pages for the first time. Loved it -- a huge improvement over AppleWorks.
We just got the proof back from the printer today, and for the most part, things were fine. However, all of the drop shadows on the text and images were missing. Before I burned the CD, I opened the PDF of the file in Preview, just to make sure everything looked right, and it appeared exactly as it had in Pages. Now, when the print shop opened the file and showed it to me in Acrobat, sure enough, no shadows. So, when I got home, I opened the PDF in Acrobat, and sure enough, no shadows. They still show up in Preview though, so what gives?
The yearbook does look good enough without the shadows -- it's not bad enough that I'm going to redo it. However, it would be nice to know in the future how to fix that.
