After 'placing' a Word document in InDesign CS5, faint lines are showing up on almost every page of the InDesign file. No lines are in Word document. Lines show up and print after exporting to a print quality PDF. How do I get rid of these lines in the InDesign file?
A couple of thoughts:
On long documents with lots of text, always control the text with well-described paragraph styles. Otherwise it takes forever to tweak and adjust and edit things.
But also:
Never use the invasive Normal paragraph style from Word.
Never use InDesign's Basic Paragraph Style.
Never (or rarely) allow one style to be based on another style. Especially Basic Paragraph Style or Normal style. Choose No Paragraph Style most of the time in the Based On drop down choice..
Make sure to use character styles for attributes like Bold, Italic, and other occasional attributes within the paragraph of typesetting.
