Can anyone else see two fine white lines through this pattern.....it divides the page into 3. I made a pattern fill but the sqaure selection box was around two of the leaves so I know its not caused by me not selecting the pattern correctly as there would be even more white bits plus the white line is in the wrong position for this. The line shows very finely when I print out the sheet.....does anyone know the cause and how I get rid of it? The pattern was created with Draw

I can, but only if I download the image and zoom into it.
The white lines look like being a single pixel high, so perhaps your pattern width and height are probably not exact multiples of a pixel -- so the error may accumulate, eventually skipping a pixel due to rounding.
The pattern units seem to be fixed to that of the page size, but it might be worth changing the page size to pixels, check that the tile size is an exact number of pixels and rebuild your fills. But this is just a guess/suggestion to try and I've no idea if it will completely fix the problem.
we need to see the original pattern file and the CDR file

If you still have the vector drawing, enable Object Hinting, under the Edit menu, then do the pattern selection. This may help you eliminate the fine light line(s).
Hi Hugh,
Tried that and it didn't work
Ariel if you can explain how I attach Corel files to this post then I will do so
I get so frustrated with this software at times......all the things i want to achieve I see on Youtube Tutorials using Photoshop or Paintshop Pro. I have had this software two and a half years and there is still lots I don't understand although I am learning new things all the time. I think maybe I went with the wrong software for the things I want to achieve but to buy Adobe CS would be another big expense so I keep persevering. Maybe it's an age thing....young people just sail through with technology. I am very artistic but technogicly challenged

In the same way that you attached the .JPEG, just find the .CDR file and attach it instead -- make sure it isn't too big though.
