good morning,

since last week the export to PDF process of a specific document is too long.

until now it is stopped at 23% and still working on... after an hour...

the indd document is 104 pages with bitmap and vector images.

no problem with the document (no crash or something like that).

may be I'll try to save it as IDML.

 

any suggestion?

thx
😉

    Solved.

    it's my fault because I had set an object style with transparency to produce smaller file sizes by converting heavy vector files to low resolution bitmap images.

    Export as single pages - next after last exported is the one with a problem.

      you are right Robert.

      I've already started doing that.

      ...but the images were no longer modified and indesign produced the PDF correctly until a few updates ago...
