Revit Architecture 2008.  Anyone know of a way to plot rasterized (i.e. advanced model graphics is on) elevations to pdf without having the white background show up?  The white background corrosponds with the crop region and it doesn't seem to matter if the crop region is visible or not.  You don't notice the background in Acrobat because the whole background shows as white but it becomes apparent in Photoshop.  I'm plotting through pdf995 software.  The image is a screen shot of how it displays in Photoshop.  The background can be removed at this point but I'm trying to figure out a way to get transparent backgrounds without the extra step.

Have you tried exporting the file as an image instead of plotting to pdf?

Make sure your shadows and sunpath are turned off, print the PDF as a vector not raster image, and when you place it in Photoshop select "Bounding Box". When your PDF drops in Photoshop you'll have the linework only, no white background.
