![]() I have Adobe Acrobat 8 Professional. When I create marketing flyers in Word and then try to create a PDF of them, sometimes the PDF conversion will create lines around my images. The lines represent the borders of the images. This is only visible on the on screen view of the PDF. If you print the PDF, it generally prints correctly. Does anyone know of a way to create a PDF from Word without PDF creating that error? |

Hi BrazzelMarketing,
Word 07 & later sometimes leave compression artifacts around image borders. They shouldn't appear if you turn off the compression. Alternatively, you can crop the images ever-so-slightly to eliminate the border artifacts.

Thanks Macropod. I already tried turning off all image compression. Unless I'm missing something in that procedure, it didn't help.
I have not tried cropping. Will try when this happens on a square picture. Another time I get the border artifact is when I use a curved .png image. I like putting in .png images and setting the text wrapping to tight so the text will wrap around the curves of the image. Looks good in print, but this is one of the main ways I get a border artifact on the PDF screen view. Because the png images in these cases are not square, I'm guessing the cropping strategy would not be an option. Any other techniques I could try? |

Hi BrazzelMarketing,
If you've already saved the document, turning off compression is too late for pics already in it - you'd need to reinsert them.

I see. I thought you were talking about turning off the compression options in the PDF conversion settings, but you were talking about turning off compression in Word as soon as I insert the picture. Sounds like a viable work around. I'll give it a shot the next time I encounter the problem.
