Exporting PDF/X-4 and Layer FX problem

[ashf]

When Layer FX's blend mode is set to other than Normal, it will be incorrectly rasterized on PDF/X-4 export.
PDF/X-1a has no problem.
 

Also I would like you to make exporting Outline FX as a separate element possible.
Some FX can be exported as a separate element such as Outer Glow or Outer Shadow.

Here's the FX on the document
Top  Left: Outer Shadow 50% / Normal, Top Right: Outer Shadow 50% / Darken
Bottom Left: Outer Shadow 100% / Normal, Bottom Right: Outer Shadow 100% / Darken

PDF/X-4

PDF/X-1a

Thanks for your report @ashf!

I can confirm I'm able to replicate this issue with your file and have logged it with our developers now.

Please post this in the Feedback section of the forum for our team to see and consider, as the bug reporting section isn't the best place for this.

I hope this helps

@Return in the same post further down. The flattened X-4 export still doesn't work. The only solution so far: X1a. But that has problems now too.
