Ah. This step was done by a local (Austin) dup house. Would you call this an error on their part, or is this considered normal?

Thanks. Did that step, now it looks all stretched out. If I then scale it down %77 (width only), the bars are gone and the image looks pretty clean. Still tho, I would hope there would be a better solution...

Thanks again man,
