I finished a InDesign-Project. After exporting to pdf for printing, there are to grey lines on each page, presumably at the boundary between page and bleed. Didn't find a way to get ride of them. Can anyone help? Thx Gab

Hi @Jumpenjax , as Mike noted, the lines are in the ID file and PDF, Acrobat’s Object Inspector shows them as stroked paths.

@Gab5CAC,

 

I downloaded your pdf and found that there's two grey lines on each side of the page as you described. These lines are coming from your InDesign document,  you'll need to go back and remove them there.
