No Fill area of Frame Text adding color on top of underlying object

[Walt Grogan]

Hi, all--

I'm creating a fanzine to print at home on an HP LaserJet printer and have placed a frame text object on top of a rounded rectangle object with a 25% K fill. The frame text fill is set to no fill. When I print the page, I can clearly see that the bounding area of the frame text is overprinting and adding color on top of the rectangle (see attached image). Is there a setting to adjust that simply allows the background object to bleed through the no fill area of text frame without the frame text adding any additional color?

Thanks!

Walt

Can you create a sample .afpub document and share it with us so we can see what you've done and how it looks for us?

Hi, Walt!

It seems to be font related. I took the document and reduced it to one page with just the rectangle and frame text. When I replaced the font with the standard Microsoft font, Impact, the problem went away. When I switched back to the 3rd party font, CC Shiver, which I've licensed, the overprinting problem reappeared and it happens with some of ComicCraft's other fonts, too. I could create the title in Photo and bring it in as a PNG although I guess I would have to create an invisible frame text and style it as a heading 1 for the TOC, but them's the breaks.

Best,
Walt
