    I have been using Layout for my presentations at work lately.

    I make pdf's of my Word and Excel files, and then insert the pdf's as clean, crisp images into my layout document.

    I then use clipping masks, create borders, center the images, etc.....

    The problem arises when I need to make changes to the original word or excel file. I will modify it, re-save the .pdf (overwriting the file) and re-insert it into the presentation.

    For some reason, Layout remembers the information in the old file and doesn't update correctly.

    I have to name the file slightly differently in order to have the changes take effect correctly.

    It's not a big deal because I have a work around, but can somebody please help me understand why Layout "remembers" the information on the old file, even when it has been clearly saved over.....

    I can't figure it out for the life of me....
