AfPub. PDF vs. Screen view ("cloud" frame behind text box)


Recommended Posts

Hi, once again.

Here's what I see on the screen:

But when I export to PDF (for print; 300 dpi), this is what I see (note the darkened edge around the round-edged frame):

The layer effects are as follows:

And the settings at the top that relate to the frame are these (note that I've tried it with the 0.2 pt stroke both on and off, and I can't even see any difference):

Can anyone enlighten me as to what is going on here? Thank you very much!

EDIT: And I now see that in the PDF the text has what looks like a white blurred stroke around it, too, but that doesn't show on the screen.

You should just need to type more until the list is short enough.
