I recently have been having this problem publishing a Corelx8 file with a gradient fill to Pdf.
The fills after exporting are ALOT of vector solid fills getting lighter to darker like an eps.
It used to turn gradients into a bitmap, I know that setting is in the export settings, but clicked on or not it turns my gradient fills to ALOT of vectors.
I reset back to default and it still does this. What has changed?
I had to re do my art over and over and i did get it one TIME to export it as a bitmap, second, third, fourth,....... 40th try all vectors.
I can't figure out the rhyme or reasoning for this. I tried, all the configurations PDF x-1a. PDF x-3 i lowered the resolution to 72, I raised the resolution.
Still can't get it to publish as a bitmap like it used to do.
Any help would be greatful.

It seems that you're using compatibility with an old version of Acrobat, such as PDF X/1a or PDF X/3
Try using "compatibilty" with Acrobat 8.0 or higher
It might be the selection used for control points also. There is an issue with that in I believe X8
David, I was going to go into that as well. Seems if the control points are anything other than 50% this would happen. After testing again I couldn't get the gradient to show with the thousand lines. Might be worth a look.
Myron I'm old and brain dead, I no longer have X8 working but I believe my wife does. This was logged a while back and fixed I believe it was in 2017 or possibye a very late X8 patch. In printing it never affected output just if you sent the PDF to another application for editing.
