MacDraw Pro: Issue with EPSF XTND translator 1.0

This information was provided by Claris Corporation on 16 March 1998, and incorporated into Apple Computer's Tech Info Library.
This issue exists with MacDraw Pro 1.0v1 with the EPSF XTND translator 1.0

The following steps recreate the issue:
1. Import or paste a bitmap with transparent pixels into MacDraw Pro
2. Draw a square or other object, fill with a color and place behind the bitmap. The filled object should be visible through the bitmap.
3. Save As to an EPSF file. Open the EPSF file and print a color separation.

The bitmap will mask out the colored object underneath, as if the transparent pixels were white. There is no current workaround for this issue.
