Dan Kiehart Posted March 31, 2017 Share Posted March 31, 2017 I constructed a beautiful looking multi-micrograph panel in affinity designer after manipulating raw tiff images in affinity photo. The panel looks fine and is attached A screen shot looks find and is attached When I export to pdf in order to submit to a journal, dark shadows appear over parts of the figure. I tried copying each panel into a new designer document but that didn't work. I figure there is some bizarre setting i've toggled on for some of the panels? Best, Dan Revised Fig 3 with 5 or 7 panels.afdesign test 2 Revised Fig 3 with 5 or 7 panels.pdf test save as pdf Revised Fig 3 with 5 or 7 panels.pdf Revised Fig 3 with 5 or 7 panels.pdf Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff Lee D Posted April 3, 2017 Staff Share Posted April 3, 2017 Hi Dan, Welcome to the forums. As a quick workaround when exporting to PDF, choose to Rasterise everything. If you edit one of the embedded documents the 'shadow' is related to the Levels adjustments that have been applied. Also the embedded docs Colour Format is set to Grey/8 and the Profile Grayscale D50. The document you're exporting is set to CMYK/8 and US Web Coated v2.
