Howdy,

I've got the exact same file list; all the same dates and versions.

In your original post you said you were using TeXShop 2.20 while I'm  
using 2.26.

What happens when you open the pdf file in Preview? Those extra ticks  
are quite thin and I wonder if some anti-aliasing differences between  
out two system is making the extra ticks disappear.

Good Luck,

Herb Schulz
