Hello people,

I have a problem by using the dynamic painting on illustrator.

After doing it, and save as pdf i have weird white line, separating the colors...

Do you know where it can come from? 

I provided you the pdf where you can see those "white lines"

To really get rid of the anti-aliasing artifacts:

Expand the Live Paint Group

Select the color that is showing the white line.

Choose Select > Same Fill Color

In the Pathfinder panel click: Unite

That way you will get rid of a good portion of the artifacts, but it seems that some of them remain nonetheless.

 

Another way that often helps is to just copy the whole drawing (in this case the girl) and paste in place, then export to .pdf or some other file formats.

And in case you are using Acrobat or Acrobat Reader, you may check if it is just a screen issue caused by anti-aliasing.

 

You can turn off anti-aliasing in Acrobat's application preferences.

When saving for Photoshop, don't expand the live paint group, but export to the raster format and make sure the antialiasing is set to Supersampling. That often works.

What happens if you expand the Live Paint group?
