Created artwork contains lines above some text

Hello,

 

When I create artwork files, the export is including a small white line above the text (in this instance above the name Frank).  It doesn't matter what text I select.  I have attempted numerous settings to remove this without any resolution.  I have attached a photo of the export.

 

Thank you

When transparency has been flattened inside Illustrator, then the anti-aliasing setting becomes very important and should be Supersampling. Also when there are patterns in your artwork, Supersampling usually is better

 

Unless you absolutely need to edit something in a very special way, I would not flatten transparency inside Illustrator. It's not important for exporting to JPEG. And in case you are exporting to PDF, flattening can be done when exporting the PDF.

So the screenshot is from an exported PDF?

Did you flatten transparency? Then that would explain the lines

Thank you so much for your reply.  The photo is from a JPG export.  I was able to flatten the transparency, but I forgot to select the artwork setting for resolution during export.

 

Thank you very much for your response.
