[Scribus] PDF Doc Display Unreadable

[Marshall Lake]

I'm creating a pure text document using version 1.0.1 of scribus.  I
export it to PDF and open it using Acrobat Reader 5.0.7.  The display
using Acrobat shows a checkerboard background pattern making it very
difficult to read the text.  The document prints fine using Acrobat.

Does anyone know what I might be doing wrong?
