I'll try. :) When the WikiPublisher PDF comes back, nothing generated by
Beautifier is displayed. I'll have to try the other syntax highlighter in
the Recipe list. Haven't had a chance yet. You can see the glitch if you go
here: http://wikiserver.eeinternet.com/Main/WikiPublisherBeautiferGlitches
and publish the PDF.

This may very well be what happens.

I guess I'm not 100% clear on that comment. Do you mean no syntax highlighter
will work with Wiki Publisher? Or am I not following you? Is there
a "PmWiki way" of generating output vs. the way Beautifier is doing it?
