Failed to Export PDF / Unable to display a PDF image on the page

I have just updated InDesign to Indesign v 16.1 and have a problem with exporting to PDF.  

The file works well on Indesign v 14.0 before, but when I open the file using Indesign v 16.1, a pop-up said that "Unable to display a PDF image on the page" which might be the reason for failure. 

Appreciate any suggestions. Thanks.

Export the file to IDML - then open that and resave it.

See if it helps.

 

If not - try reimporting the PDF.

Are you know which pdf-file "bugged" with that error? Can you download to some dropbox/yadisk this file and some of us will try to reproduce bug on his side and may be will help with some fix/advice.

Remember, never say you can't do something in InDesign, it's always just a question of finding the right workaround to get the job done. © David Blatner
