Hey Alex,
Thanks for the quick reply to my post. I had to crop my initial picture since it was messing with the browser window after embedding. But here’s another picture that shows the files on my comp. As you can see, there are two solid layers underneath the text, which the white layer on top.

Actually, in typing this thread (and through trial and error from Alex’s post), I figured it out. I simply forgot to import the solids associaited with the comp when I imported the comp using the dynamic link function. Seems to be working fine now.
