Hi. Many times when I export to pdf parts of the file disappear - a letter, an exclamation point or vector elements. How can the problem be solved? This has already happened in several files

  1. What elements are missing? Placed images? Parts of placed images? Genuine drawn objects in InDesign?
  2. Are the object attributes set to print?
  3. Is the layer set to print?
  4. If it is text, which font did you use? Are all used glyphs part of that font?
  5. What PDF export settings do you use? How do you create the PDF?
  6. Have the missing elements a specific color? A spot color?

Hi. Letters are missing from words, and marks like - Commas and exclamation
marks.
It's different types of fonts, all standard (I bought them).
I always use the same settings when exporting PDF, didn't change anything
there.
For the pdf I go to export - screenshots attached.
It's not a specific color. but it's always process cmyk colors

In conclusion, it is not something specific and permanent. Some files come
out fine and some are missing parts of texts - Different colors and
different fonts

Thank you very much!!

last letter or exclamation mark / period etc.

Latest version doesn't help, especially now. 19.3 is currently rolling out. That said, how are you viewing the PDFs? Can you post screenshots?
