Bug: Inpainting artifact on export

[mikeswarts]

I've uploaded each the AFPhoto file and the exported image. Notice the white outlines where the inpainting was done.

Setup is iMac latest OS and AFPhoto versions.

Export settings are jpeg, 1200x900, 85 quality

Can anyone suggest a possible workaround?

 

Thank you

I found a workaround. Rasterizing did the trick.

Ideally my adjustments would all be non-destructive, however, so if anyone has other insights, I'd still appreciate it!

Edit: Rasterize does not always work. I have another file that I can't find a way to get rid of these artifacts.

Edit 2: I tried increasing quality to 100. Doesn't help.

Edit 3: Exporting at original resolution (4032x3024) solves the problem, and the solution is maintained when opening the 4032x3024 jpeg and exporting to the desired 1200x900 size. My question remains: Is there a better way?

Edit 4: I'm attaching more photos. This issue is brutal to my workflow.
