When I export my novel as a PDF, the spreads get a black border, although there is no such element on any of my pages. What causes this and how do I get rid of it? I can't send it to a printer like this!

This image shows how the bottom of a right page, and the top of a left page, look.

I've tried various export settings, always the same.

Edit: Uh, the white background in my master page has a black frame, that's it. Can't delete this post, sorry.

No need to be sorry, someone will read this and have an Aha! moment thanks to you editing and explaining the solution.

Affinity Designer 2.6.0 | Affinity Photo 2.6.0 | Affinity Publisher 2.6.0 | Beta versions as they appear.

I have never mastered color management, period, so I cannot help with that.

If that's the cause, then the black frame should have also been visible in Publisher when looking at the document pages that have that Master; it shouldn't have shown up only in the PDF.

Was it visible in Publisher when looking at the document pages? If not, there's still something odd going on.
