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

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
Here they are hope I have done it right

If it looks ok on everyones screens then there shouldn't be a problem as other people will be dowloading it and printing it off to use in paper crafting....but I can't let them have it with white lines through so I need to make sure it's not just me that can see it. I can see it clearly on screen in the jpg picture above but another member said they had to down load it and zoom right in to see it.....if so it shouldn't cause a problem with paper crafting
Hi,
I can clearly see the white lines on the screen and I have had this same problem often. This is caused by anti-aliased edges between your black tile and the white background created during the pattern creation.
To solve this, create a solid black (same black as in your pattern) rectangle behind the pattern that you are trying to create that is larger than your pattern tile. When you select the smaller section that contains your pattern, the anti-aliasing will no longer have transitional grey pixels along the edges and this should eliminate the white lines. Hope this helps.
Regards,
Cindy
Thanks Cindy......will give this a try
This no longer looks like a tiling error to me.
I had assumed, but had not checked, that the white lines were between one row of tiles and the next, but that is not what we have here. The two white lines are both in a different part of the pattern.
It's even happining when I use the two colour pattern fills that came with the software

Yes, I'm getting that in X4 too.
The pattern looks fine on screen while its a pattern fill, but on saving as a bitmap (tiff at 300 dpi) two scan lines go missing. Well, not quite missing -- they are actually grey:
Yes Harry London....that's what happens with me
Foster I tried the pattern fill you gave me but it was very pixalated and the two lines white/grey were still there for me. These patterns are printed on to paper to be used in papercrafting so they have to be 300 dpi
Here is a PNG file showing NO WHITE LINES. I can export it at any size (resolution) I want and it works perfectly.
Sorry Foster just tried it again........I must have picked up the wrong file before.
It's not pixalated but I still have the lines......I am obviosly doing something wrong....
