Unwanted frames when producing pdf

Can you attach a sample document with the problem? Also the resulting pdf?

Brief answer is that there is no automatic method of removing Frames. However, once you have removed them from the style, they should stay off.

I or someone else could certainly write a macro that removes frames from heading styles, but it would be nice to have a sample document with the problem to make sure the macro matches the problem.

Here is a macro that deletes frames from built-in heading styles. It may mark those styles as in use, though.

Code:

Sub  FramesRemoveFromHeadingStyles()

    ' Remove frames from built-in heading styles - may mark styles as "in-use in document, though"
    ' https://www.msofficeforums.com/175552-post2.html
    '
    Dim iCount As Long
    For iCount = 1 To 9
        With ActiveDocument.Styles(iCount)
            .Frame.Delete
        End With
    Next iCount
End Sub
