pdf export question

[A.Denis]

Hi everyone,

I just installed Xara Extreme and I am trying to export a drawing to pdf, now the weirdest thing is happening to me: I am always getting 3 smeared red dot
in the middle of the page when I view the pdf?

I am trying to troubleshoot this as I write this, but if anyone has experienced something similar please help!

super thanks!

here you go,

I tried with a completely new drawings and it`s fine,
there is something I am not seeing...

thanks,

Strange. If you deletes the text in the file, the PDF export is correct. But why?

[parahandy]

Yes I see what you mean, I get the three red spots as well, I tried enlarging etc selecting the area that they appear to be in but nothing there. If I draw a shape over the area and make it white, it gets rid of the spots in export to pdf, which proves it is in the original file . As you say very strange, maybe the experts on the forum may have an answer. Even selecting just the text when exported the spots are still presnt.

Like you said it seems linked to the text, so I re-created the text items from scratch and now it`s ok!

I really did abuse these files a bit because I'm learning this tool while doing a little off program university course, so a little corruption from mishandling the tools is very possible!

thanks for your help!
