Interesting.

Unfortunately, by the time I found the corruption in the pdf file, I could no longer remember which 
page I had been on when my graphic 'disappeared'. It was a graphic I had been applying manually to 
the base of each page.

My doc was only of 15 pages, not > 97, so after I found I could not get rid of the phantom, I 
copied and pasted progressively into a new document and tested by converting into pdf from time to 
time to make sure the phantom had not been transferred too.
