RoboHelp 11: Header and Footer Issue

I've been trying to use RoboHelp 11's new header and footer feature for printed documentation, but haven't had much luck with the output. I created a Master Page for the basis, and added some simple text (doc title in the header, copyright in the footer) and some background shading. However, once I generate the output, the shading and text display incorrectly. See images below for an example of what I'm getting.

Did I miss something when I created the Master Page or generated the output? Also, I am using Word 2013, and I've read pretty much everywhere that RH11 and Word 2013 have had issues for a lot of other users, but I couldn't find anything pertaining specifically to this issue.

Thanks in advance for any information you can provide,

Steven

I have moved this thread to the Printed Documentation forum.

Can you set up a simple one or two topic project that illustrates this problem and send it to me? See the Contact page on my site and send the project as instructed there. Do make sure you include a link to this thread and please do not email the project direct.
