Table header disappear when exporting to pdf

Community Beginner ,
Sep 17, 2019 Sep 17, 2019

Hello Adobe Community I'm using Indesign and have created a table, the upper cells row I have done as Header and introduced an image in each cell. The header repeats in each single page after and this is fine. The problem appears when exporting in pdf where the header appears only on the first page and not on the followings. File was created with CS3 first than converted to the last indesign. Thanks alot for your help. Beppe

it seems that indesign fails to export to pdf the headers of tables that contain graphic cells.

you could avoid the problem by anchoring images in text cells

you could also submit bug repport here

Thank you for testing. I see the same with the latest InDesign 2024 version 19.5.0.84.

Screenshot from Acrobat Pro showing the exported PDF/X-4 pages 1 and 2 side by side:

Attached the InDesign document, the resulting PDF that was exported with the standard PDF/X-4 export preset for print and the placed image:

That bug is clearly not fixed.

Hi together,

did another test with a facing-pages document. The issue is visible when you thread the story with the table from one spread to another one. Exported PDF shown in Acrobat Pro:
