I have a number of images that I created and saved within Photoshop Elements. The images all have transparent backgrounds and work fine when imported into word or excel. Lately when creating new images all of the image that is tranparent within Photoshop now appear as black when imported into word or excel. Has anyone seen something similar or no of some setting that I may have accidentally changed that is causing this?

I believe that I have figured out why I am having the problem I described. It seems to be related to the ICC Profile in Photoshop Elements being on or off – if it is off the problem doesn’t happen.
