You can choose a PDF level (1.3, 1.4, 1.5 etc.) but that does not resurrect the live transparency. There are other features (besides transparency status) of the other PDF versions, which is why you get a choice. Woz,

If you do INDD wil NOT "see" the ICC profile enclosed within the .EPS. Re-save your image as .TIF or PSD and "Bob's your uncle!". "Distilling PDFs through Adobe Acrobat Distiller will flatten transparencies." Well that all depends on your joboption, now doesn't it ? ;-). everything below PDF 1.4 will flatten.
