Why does the Red Plus sign show up when exporting?

I have noticed recently that the "Red Plus Sign" that shows up when you have overflow text, tends to show up when exporting. Does anyone know why? Seems to be a new bug. Yes, I know I can get rid of the overflow but it is a long story. In case you where wondering.

    Exactly when does it show up?

    After you exported an image and then open it again?

     

    What file format is it and which version of Illustrator?

    Yes, "after" I export to either PNG or JPG. They show up in both when opening to preview and when you insert into a document, like MS Word. See attached example.  Illustrator version 29.4

      Hello @26MainSt,

      Thanks for confirming. You will need to upload the file to a file-sharing service like Google Drive/Dropbox/etc. and share a public link to it here, so I can check it on my end.

      Looking forward to hearing from you.
