PDF export giving wrong results

[jc4d]

Hi all,

When I export my file as PDF some of the elements become barely visible. I tried many export combinations without avail.

The text has a Color Overlay, not sure if this is the culprit.

 

This is how it looks in Designer:

And this is how it looks in Acrobat:

 

Cheers,

I chose to rasterize only Unsupported features over the export dialog.

It is a combination of text and objects, where the text has 29% transparency and Colour Overlay on the Layer Effects. The object has nothing special, just a gray plain color but when it overlaps with the text, it creates that "darkenish" tone.

Thank you, I fixed following your advice. The only different thing is I made a "safe" copy of the text and rasterize it without Preserving layer FX

So yeah, is not a clean solution (hope for it) but it worked.

E.g., using the text as a clipping object and applying a rectangle with the desired effect on it (like here a linear gradient), would keep the text as text, which would probably help avoid the color problem, too.

 

Thanks , that's an interesting approach, I will try it out
