Working with an outlined glyph, fill color and stroke color are different. Added a Drop Shadow from the Option Bar. Looks great, prints blah. The area of the bounding box changes the color to be lighter shade. I opened the Drop Shadow dialog and turned off Multiply blending mode, still happens. I have now changes as many elements as I can find and still have the same effect.

Interestingly if I use a font instead of an outline it still does the same thing.

Little help here please, I can send a file if needed.
