Thanks, LondonSquirrel. I had a 2-page document created in Publisher 2 that wouldn't export to pdf, and the Resource Manager worked well to find a couple of files that were a problem. I'd originally placed them as .svg files, but they kept disappearing when I re-opened the document. I converted them to .jpg but they seemed to have left 'ghosts' of themselves behind in the layers. I deleted them and now the pdf preview appears instantly and export is fine.

Hi everyone - just to add my voice to this. I'm getting the same problem, although unlike Ron P it occurs with both landscape and portriat orientation. Like Ron, I use a Wacom Intuos 3 tablet, but the issue occurs whether I draw the overlay with the mouse or the tablet. The Overlay Erase tool will remove the unwanted streaks but it's not always easy to do this. Windows 10 on AMD Ryzen 7 2700X, 16 GB RAM. Look forward to any news on resolving the issue.
