Double Line in Footer

I have come across this once before and fixed it, but now I have forgotten the cause or how to fix it.  I have a double line in the footer of my Body Pages, but it doesn't show up in the Master Pages.  Image attached.

    In the meeting.

     


    Rick Quatro and I found where the additional line was coming from, and it was barely visible when selected in  Master Pages.  I drew a box around the footer (in Master Pages) and the extra line with the Selection tool and noted that the footer had its own box but the line was almost invisible because it was so close to the footer box boundary line.  We noted that the selection (frame) boxes displayed for the footer boundary and two for the line that we couldn't see once selected.


    The solution was to select the entire footer area and outside that footer areas, but not inside text area.  I was able to see the line boundary boxes and selected the line to delete it.

     

    Thanks Rick!

    It could be in the Footnote paragraph tag/style, under the Advanced tab, with the Frame Above Pgf. setting. 

    Or someone could have edited the Footnote frame on the References pages.

    As far as Footnote frame in Reference pages, I don't find the double line in any other section except this one and it is Footer Right.

    You need the entire manual or just the book and IOM?  The IOM is the only section I have this issue with.  I have something in the Reference page that might be suspect in the IOM section.

    If you Control+Click on the extra line on the body page to select it?
