Export problems in InDesign - text changing color completely

Hi there,

 

I am trying to export a document where there is yellow text. When I export it, all the yellow text turns white. I don't know why it is happening. I have different boxes of text in the same layer, and some of it is white, so I dont know if that is an issue. It is just the text that is turning white too, no other elements or anything. 

 

If anyone knows what is going on, I'd love some help! I'm pretty new to InDesign.

I figured it out using this comment! Once I checked the color swatches I realized I somehow I set the paper color to the yellow I was using and the text I wanted yellow ended up having no fill or something. 

 

Thank you!

How did you create this yellow color? Can you post a screenshot of the swatch panel? Or the color panel?

What format are you exporting the document to?
