Question

InDesign

Hello friends, I had a question about the PDF output I'm getting from InDesign.
I grabbed the PDF output from the plan view, the quality is fine, but when I import and export it into InDesign, a series of fine and white grid lines appear on the work.
What's interesting is that it's only on the plan and plan page. It does not fall on sections and views.
Does anyone have a similar experience, do they fall into the squeeze too? Or do you know where the problem lies and how I can solve it?

    If you import PDFs into InDesign, you should choose PDF/x-4. 

    To avoid those stitching lines, export a PDF without flattened transparency, a PDF/x-4 would also be fine.

    Hi,

    tnx for you'r antwort. I get a PDF output file from the Rewit. Now, when I import this file into InDesign, I encounter these lines at the printing stage, and I didn't understand what you mean by these changes to not display these lines, how is it possible?

    I do not know Rewit. But if you import files to InDesign you should choose a PDF type with live transparency as a PDF/X-4 is. Flattening causes stitching lines. It is important for import as this lines often get burned into the final file. 
    With PDF output it is not so dangerous as you can turn off antialiasing in Acrobat and those lines become invisible.
