jpg can't have transparency... Can you post a screenshot? Are you printing the PDF? What version of PDF? PDF 5 and below doesn't support transparency.

I am having the same issue. In my document in Illustrator it looks perfectly fine, but when I print it out, I have this affect. Notice the darkened edges where it should be transparent.
