I have an image that I have placed a colored box on top of and right aligned them. However, depending on what magnification I am viewing the document at, there is a sliver of the image showing to the right of the colored box. It is happening in INDD and also when I view the PDF in Acrobat and if I upload to Issuu as well. Is it something to do with trapping?
Hi,
I don't think that trapping is the issue.
It may be that the screen rendering with the PDF viewers does this.
What you could try:
[1] Expand the width of the image in the background. Expand the width of the text frame as well.
[2] Group the image and the text frame.
[3] Draw a rectangle on top of the group with no fill and no stroke.
Make it the width you originally intended with both elements in the group.
[4] Cut the group to the clipboard.
[5] Select the rectangle and paste the group in
