On a file I am publishing to PDF it appears the process is adding an object. Attached is a small cropped version of my file as it appears in Adobe Reader one with "Line Weights" ticked and one without..
This object appears as a small vertical line at the left of my document about 1/4 of the way down. You can see this in the first image on the left side (below the menu dropdown). "Line Weights" is ticked in Adobe Reader.
With "Line Weights" unticked, the line extends across the page as shown in the bottom image.
If I import the PDF back into Draw, the line is there and can be deleted like any other object. I am sure that this object is not on my document prior to export. My other very similar documents when published to PDF do not have this problem. Any ideas?
Yeah... happens to me as well. And a large white rectangle (no outline) sometimes in the background on all imported pages.
No fix that I know of.
I usually use a pdf printer, Acrobat 6, most of the time... there are some free ones on the Net.
I could probably edit the lines out in Acrobat or whatever... but failing that would fix in CD and then print to pdf using a separate pdf writer not part of CD.

Draws PDF export import is not a round trip filter set. Can you post a copy of your CDR file please?
Thanks for the offer but my files are a little large to post at 50Mb.
I did however find a workaround after two days. I figured that with the same page with all the contents removed there would be no anomalys like the one above when publishing to PDF, and I was right.
What I eventually did was this: deleted different elements on my page and kept publishing to PDF. Eventually, the problem was not appearing in the PDF. I isolated where the problem was coming from and deleted that area and created again from scratch. Problem solved.

As nothing looked out of place in my document I can't say exactly what the object was. I can say that is was somewhere under that big black line that went all the way across the page.

but with me its happens to be in the middle of the page...and don't know how to handle....
