nomi02118 Posted August 25, 2023 Share Posted August 25, 2023 This Designer exports perfectly in all the formats I have tried and looks good in the preview except for PDF Print, PDF/X_1a:2003 exports as it should. The odd thing is the other 2 islands in the illustration are made with the same techniques and print export as they should, it's just the whales that are an issue. Thought this might be a weird bug. It shows up in the current version and the beta. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff EmT Posted August 25, 2023 Staff Share Posted August 25, 2023 Hi @nomi02118 Would you be able to provide a copy of your file so we can investigate?

Hangman Posted August 25, 2023 Share Posted August 25, 2023 Hi @nomi02118, Do you have any FX applied to any of the Whale elements, i.e., any element contained within the rectangle that displays incorrectly on export? If you do, try disabling the FX temporarily to see if the file then exports correctly, if that makes no difference then @EmT beat me to it, an upload of the file would be really helpful.

I do, there is a gaussian blur FX to the reflexion but that is on all three islands and only whales export weird. Exporting with it off did not help.

Could you also upload a pdf where you see the issue shown in your screenshot?

Staff EmT Posted August 25, 2023 Staff Share Posted August 25, 2023 Hi @nomi02118 It looks like the issue is occurring on this layer here: If you resize or crop it so it fits within or at the size of the boundaries of the page, the file does then export correctly. I'll pass this along to the devs to be investigated.

I resized the sky to be sure it wasn't over the borders as well but it wasn't. Still weird it's only that one group and the 2 islands are fine. This won't be finished for a while and I plan to use PDF/X-1a for printing but I hope if this is a problem and not just me, it gets solved. let's count to ten.pdf Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
