Export to image has vertical lines across the images

[fredlef]

When exporting to any image format images are displaying with vertical lines across every image - I have tried 4 different formats.



Any help appreciated.

There is not much that anyone can test without the PDF file. There is no such problem with any files that I have tested. It may depend on the PDF producer tahat was used to create the files.

fredlef,

Please specify the version of the viewer you are using
(you can find it in Help -> About)
, and yes please attach zipped PDF file so we could test it.

Cheers,
Stefan

Thanks for the replies. The version is Version 2.0, Build 42.2.

PDF File attached.

Third time is a charm - had to reduce the number of pages to decrease the file size.

Thanks,

I cannot see any vertical lines at all in PDF-XChange Viewer. Changing the settings in Preferences, Rendering, Smooth Images makes no difference. See my sig for my system specs.

If I zoom in really close using Adobe Reader 7.1 (2000%) I can see some horizontal white lines.

If I export to image, I see horizontal lines on the preview and in the exported image. (See attachment).

If I take a snapshot @ 300 dpi I also see the lines, but @ 600 dpi it seems to be OK.

Hmmm ok - I think this must mean they are on the original pdf. When I resaved the PDF file to PDF to make it smaller I didn't rotate the images - hence the horizontal vs. vertical. Guess I'll see how I make out with the Snapshot feature.

Thanks for looking.

Hello fredlef,

There were similar problems with visualizations in the viewer having white lines earlier. I guess this image exporting was not changed when the display issues were fixed.

The trouble is with the PS drivers spliting larger images into small pieces and as those pieses have floating point coordintes there are sometimes "gaps" between the separate pieces. The higher the resolution the less chance to render a while line in the document.

Will point this to our development team so they could check the exporting tools and search for a solution.

Regards,
Stefan

Hi fredlef and Bhikkhu,

Just got the news that this has been fixed, and fix will be available with the next build.

Hi fredlef
we are aiming for next week but it is somewhat of a moving target. I can post here when it is released or email you.

[fredlef]

Either way would be great - I'll keep an eye out here.

Thanks,
Fred
