Default Table - White highlighted text

Hello my fellow writers,


I am currently writing my master thesis... It's already done, but I have an issue: if I save my document as PDF, the text in my usually grey table headings gets highlighted white. It happens just at the location where there is also text.


Any suggestions how to not get that?
I am only able to remove it if I change the font :O




It only happens in the PDF...


Look like that (instead of just grey headings and black text)
Font: Minion Pro
Office Version: Microsoft Office Professional Plus 2016

There are different ways to create PDFs. What method are you using?

It looks like the table cells are shaded, while the text headings are highlighted.

If you make sure that the text has the highlighting property set to "No Color", the problem may go away.

It's hard to know without seeing an example. Would you like to post a passage from the document here?

@Guessed: I am just saving the PDF directly from Word (Save As -> PDF)


@d4: I tried that, wouldn't help.. I added a part of the document




Update: It does not happen if I "print to" PDF24 (some program I used to modify PDFs). It also looks like the resolution pretty much stays intact when I do that, impressive!




SOLVED
(thx Guess for the idea)

Yes, the shading in the file looks fine. It must be happening in the PDF creation process.
