dblatex Randomly Produces Bold Pages

["Russell Harvey" <rharvey@morrisdickson.com>]

I'm using dblatex via Python to produce a PDF file on a Windows machine.  Here is my command line.

 

C:\xml> python C:\Python26\scripts\dblatex -P latex.hyperparam=colorlinks,linkcolor=blue my_file.xml

 

For some reason, on two of the pages, all text is bold, including the header and footer.

 

The XML has been validated using Jing against the RelaxNG schema.

 

Here are samples of the XML used to produce each of the pages.  Each is in an appropriate context.  Ellipses represent plain text.

 

Sample 1:
