Thanks in advance for your help.

I've used fluid mask to remove the background of an image I would like to use in a design. The Image is exactly like I want it with no background, but when I go to print... it fills in the no background with yellow, How do I make the background I removed be transparent so that it just sits on top of my design instead of it automatically refilling in the background with a color?

I think you have to reject creating a prime when it is asked just after saving and apply from fluid mask, that is the way I do and it works for me.

I just noticed the same thing:
On a file where I'd removed the background with Fluid Mask, I printed to a pdf for emailing and the pdf showed the yellow background. Weird.
I made a copy and rendered it to a bitmap for emailing.
