Text from Master Pages rasterized on PDF export

[Corrado]

When I export a PDF the text from the Mater Pages are rasterized. See headers on attached file:

We will probably need to see a sample .afpub file and a PDF created from it.

Here you go

You have applied a Blend Mode (other than Normal) to the text – e.g. Contrast Negate.

Blend Modes (other than Normal, and maybe Passthough) will force the layer to be rasterised upon export, for technical reasons which I don't know enough about to explain properly.

If you need the text to look different depending on what’s below the text I would, instead of using blend modes, probably use different master pages for different circumstances.

You are absolutely right, I totally forgot about the blend mode!

Thank you
