Hello everything is fine?

 

I have a problem in Illustrator. When I save the art in PDF/X-1a:2001 for printing in a graphic, the PNG's are getting these borders around them.


I've already masked it, rasterized it and it still has this gray border.

Does anyone know how to solve it?

Olá, tudo bem?

Estou com um problema no Illustrator. Quando salvo a arte em PDF/X-1a:2001 para impressão em gráfica, os PNG's estão ficando com essas bordas em torno.
Já fiz máscara, rasterizei e continua com essa borda cinza.

Alguém sabe como solucionar?

Looks that is caused by flattening transparency.

Maybe PDF/X-4  works for you?

Or rasterize the images and maybe that smoke effect and keep the text and vector elements above it as vector.

Hellou Ton, 

 

Thank you for the help.
I followed the tip you gave in PDF /X-4 and it worked!
It no longer had the edges.

Do you know if printers generally accept this format?

You have to talk to your printer, the format is from 2010 and if they have a recent rip, it should be supported.

If not, you can always rasterize the image part and image effects of your file.
