Hello everyone,
I’m seeking your help to resolve an issue I’m having with a poster I’m making. Everytime I export the file into pdf, I end up with two weird faint blue boxes around two blocks. I have no idea how to get rid of them ! It’s around two imported psd elements.
I apologize if I’m not being very clear. I’m not a regular indesign user.
Here is a screen shot of what the faint blue box looks like on the pdf. These boxes show when I print the document.
Thanks so much for your help, this is a project I need to finish by tomorrow and I’ve been pulling my hair out since friday !
I clicked the link, but I have no idea what I am supposed to click on after that.
And when I try to back out, I get bombarded with pop-up ads.
Hi. Does the blue line print? You often get a 1px blue line around placeholders for images. If they don’t get any bigger when you zoom in, they’re not really there. Just a display problem. Hope this helps.
That’s pretty weird. I would press Cmd-Shift-L to unlock everything on the spread, and then Cmd-A with the Selection tool to see if there really are any frames there. (Make sure no layers are locked, which would prevent objects from being selected.)
Also, you could try the Separations Preview panel to see if they’re really there in the document.
