CorelDRAW X7 (Urgent) Export problem with PDF

(Urgent) Export problem with PDF

f4ke over 8 years ago

Hi,

I have a problem I've never had before:

Exported a 2 page design to PDF, usual settings.
Detailed floral pattern, curves, no outline, color only
Pattern on page 1 is messed up. Shows up in PDF like pictured below (Left side)
Pattern on page 2 is correct. (Right side)

Tried:

Copying pattern from page 2 to page 1, still the same
Creating new layers and copying ''good pattern'', still the same
Tried looking into export settings, nothing unusual.
Tried looking if i have any effects on the page, none.

Does anyone know what the problem is? CorelDRAW X7

If you insert a new page between page 1 and page 2, then copy the background from the former page 2, does it then come out ok? If so, copy all the other elements from page 1 except the background and delete page 1.

Yes, I did some testing and figured out my problem. It's kind of mysterious though...

I had one PNG file on my page1 and it somehow messed up the pattern. Converted that to JPG and now we're golden! :D

Maybe I should explain my proccess for anyone who needs help....

I created a new document in corel and started copy-pasting my objects one-by-one and exporting after each one to see, if any of the objects created the problem. When I copied the group with a PNG the problem occured. I don't know WHY a png file would mess something up, but in my case it did.

Quick solution is to print and use the "SAVE TO PDF". I am encountering the same problems for Corel X3 and X7 uncertain whether it is an issue for COREL or my Adobe PDF or my Adobe Acrobat PRO. It might be COREl and my quick solution does not address COREL issue. Need help too! I will read suggested fixes and will try which works for me.
