Front shape appears thinner after subtracting from back shape

Hi everyone

 

I'm using CS3 on a Mac.

 

I outlined my text and subtracted it (and the tree image) from the black background. When I did this both appear thinner - particularly the tree.

 

If I then take the original version and the new subtracted version, and view them both overlayed one on top of the other in wire frame (outline) mode, there is no difference in the actual lines.

 

It seems to be a problem with the way illustrator previews the images. This wouldn't concern me, but when I export the file as a jpeg, the lines also appear thinner in the export. 

 

I can create a manual solution by offsetting the path before subtracting, but this isn't ideal.

 

I wondered if maybe my settings are wrong somewhere? Can't believe this is a problem with the software?
