indesing text seems highlighted, but does not show at printed pdf

indesing text seems marked, but does not show at printed pdf, how can i stop seeing it at indesign also?
i have searched for a bit but they are talking about paragraph shading at cc2015 and i am working on cc2014,
it kind of bothers me most,,,seeing it at translated files,,
can i remove this highlight?

[Frans v.d. Geest]

InDesign has a range of colours that 'highlight': Pink for missing fonts, green for kerning etc., blue for local overrides, yellow for keep violations etc. etc.

So first thing to ask: which colour do you see?

Edit > Preferences > Composition.

Choose what you want to be highlighted and what not.

[dorothea.per]

none of those,

this is marked by client for text to reuse at further jobs,

its not a missing font or kerning issue

[winterm]

Did client marked it directly in InDesign file? Maybe that text has specific text style assigned? Or you placed already formatted text with some text editor? It's a kind of shooting in the dark without seeing actual file.

Maybe you could discard formatting while placing, or, being in ID, select 'marked' text and copy all attributes from 'good' text (using eyedropper), or applying your own 'good' Para Style with no overrides. Thus you might be able to get rid of that 'marking' without even knowing what it was exactly.

i don't have i clue how he did it, these highlighted areas help him to know what needs to extract for other projects,
i just don't know how he does it,
i guess is somethhing he "turns on"

for these areas so i was wondering if i can turn it of when working on those files

[dorothea.per]

if i enter a change there, then the highlight disappears so it is not a paragraph style issue

[winterm · Accepted solution]

You still didn't say where that marking was done.

Well, assuming directly in ID. I would check Conditional Text panel then:

If Indicators: are set to Show, you will see the highlight, but it won't print nor export. In order to remove highlighting just remove that condition.

[dorothea.per]

you are absolutely correct,

i am used seeing conditional text only at frame maker,,,,thanksssssssssss
