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
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....
I have attached a .PAT giving the same results as Foster -- tried in version 11 and X4 with these results:
Pay no attention to the grey one in the center though -- just testing something as well.

So, what happens if you take the attached X4 file (created from your .PAT file), select the pattern rectangle and do bitmaps > convert to bitmap at 300 dpi ?
Zoom in to about 1000% somewhere near that red triangle. I'm definitely seeing a white line there, and another about a third down.
