Hi,

Try setting the PICKSTYLE system variable to 1 or 3. Please post back if it works or not.

I would try Unmask Text in the Express Tools to get rid of the mask, then if need be remask the text to account for the increase, or decrease in size

perhaps using wipeout to turn on the frame?

FYI:
Tim was right. Set PICKSTYLE to 1 or 3 and it solves that problem.

try the background mask in mtext instead of text mask.
