Export Indesign to JPG generates yellow horizontal lines in image

What happens? Al of a sudden I get yellow lines in all my image exports (PNG / JPG)... When giving it more pixels/inch the lines change position and are less wide.

Hi, I'm having the same issue with yellow line appearing in my exported image. My yellow line appears at the bottom of the image. This all started after the most recent Indesign Update.

All computers in our office are doing the same thing when exporting since the update. Jpeg leaves multiple lines, PNG leaves a yellow line across ethe bottom of every image. Very inconvient...

This is happening to me too! I've had every .jpeg come out this way - it's not an MAC OS issue, I'm working from Windows 10. Happens when the image file is embedded and linked.

yes, thanks.Settings are good so I suspect this is the bug of InDesign-MacOS interaction. Declare it as bug here: https://indesign.uservoice.com/
