When I apply redaction, a white line partially appears around redacted area

I’m hoping you can help me figure out an issue. I created a redaction action wizard in Pro X (Windows 7 Ultimate) to change the name of the month for 280+ client reports. I use a new copy of the master file each month (the month always being redacted is "september", the month with the most characters).
The problem is that when I redact on a color background (using the matching color overlay), I get a fine thin white line that goes only across the top and right side of where the redaction box was (see below). Nothing across the bottom or left side – pretty close color match. The original files were created in Illustrator CS5.
Any help or suggestions would be appreciated.

Thank you. I figured it out right before I heard from you. Running the OCR before the redaction made it work correctly.
Thank you so much for taking the time to answer my question.
Make it a great day.

Can i remove white line that appears in between 2 videos when i am using video next to video

can i remove white line that appears in between 2 videos when i am using video next to video

The easiest answer would be to just get a Friskars cutter or something similar. I have one like this that I use to cut my photos apart. I found mine at a Walmart in either the scrapbook aisle or the hobby aisle.
However, if you are determined to make a custom picture package you can try making a custom layout with a text editor. I know you can control the white space amount but not sure if you can totally eliminate it.
A simple text editor will work...notepad works for this on Windows...not sure what is comparable on the mac.
In PSE3, the layouts are found following this path Adobe<Photoshop Elements 3.0<Shared Assets<Layouts...note there is also a folder titled Layouts readmes which shows the formula to edit the layouts.
Here is a link that details how to create a picture package layout using a text editor:

Caution: Make sure you save your custom layout with a new name so you don't overwrite the ones that ship with elements.

How to remove white line that appears on background of flash file when viewing in powerpoint?

When importing a swf file into powerpoint with a background colour a thin white line appears on the top of the flash movie when played in powerpoint. The white line disappears when you click onto another slide and back again, but always appears when initially playing the slide. Anyone have any ideas why this is and how to remove it?
Any help is appreciated.

Doesn't the Location Bar (URL's) also disappear in the Add-ons Tab? <br />
Separator or border used to delineate the User Interface (Toolbars) from the content area.
Contact the developer of Tree Style Tabs. If that white line doesn't appear until you click on a Tab, I would call it a Bug or glitch in that extension.

How do I avoid the white line that forms around objects I've separated from a background?

This is a cropped corner of an illustration I removed from its opaque background and placed on a transparent background. The north and west borders show the whilte line that forms whenever I place objects on a transparent background. The south and east borders are the cropped edges -- they are clean and make the trasition from object to background color without that white line. With some objects, it's possible to use the Plygonal Lasso Tool, for instance, and trim that object away from the background. With portraits or irregularly shaped objects, though, it's necessary to use the Magic Wand or other means to trim the background away from the object, which results in that unwanted white line. I've read for hours online about this problem and have found no true resolution: Defringing, Removing White Matte, Anti-aliasing, trying to predict what color you'll lay the silhouette on and working in that color, and on and on. It seems as though Photoshop would be relied upon heavily by professionals who need to place objects on top of one another without intrusion. Does anyone have a method that really works?

Hi! If the solutions you mentioned aren't working for your project, it might be worth learning a little bit about Layer Masks. This is a page that explains how Layer Masks work. http://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop/using/masking-layers.html
A Layer Mask is a black-and-white image that corresponds to your source image applied in such a way that white areas display and black areas don't. So for your project, you would want to use Photoshop to turn your scanned illustration into a black-and-white image where the area you want to keep is white, and the area you don't want to keep is black. Here is a demo using your uploaded image:
1. Open your image in Photoshop. Right-click on your source layer in the Layers Palette and select Duplicate Layer.
2. With the upper layer selected, use Image -> Adjustments -> Desaturate to turn the layer black-and-white.
3. Use Image -> Adjustments -> Invert to reverse the black and white. Now the white background should be black.
4. With the upper layer selected, use Image -> Adjustments -> Levels. Move the black, white, and gray arrows such that there is a hard black-and-white contrastwhere you want the white background to be removed.
5. You may have to use the lasso tool or the brush tool to complete the silhouette of the image against the white background.
6. With the upper, black-and-white layer selected, Edit -> Select All and Copy. Turn the layer visibility off so that you are again looking at the original image.
7. With the lower layer selected, click the Layer Mask icon. Alt-click on the Layer Mask to edit the Mask directly.
8. Edit -> Paste to apply the black-and-white image you created as a Layer Mask. If you then click the layer icon again, you should be looking at your correctly cropped image!
Hope this helps.

White line now appearing down middle of display screen today

My iMac of 2006 Tiger OS has had problems with thin, coloured vertical lines appearing on the screen since December '12. At that time I got a lot of responses and an indication that the problem was the ATiRadeon X1600 GPU. The thin vertical lines have increased a bit and I'm now up to 3 on the right and 1 on the left which haven't been any problem. However, just now a white line appeared almost down the middle of the display screen? It blanks out the places where it actually runs. It's very thin but noticible. I have taken a screen shot and viewed it in Preview. None of the lines show there? Any further ideas for a fix? I have a Seagate HDD attached so all is being backed up. Thanks! Illa

Lot's of folks had those lines after 1 or 2 years. There was even an Extended Warranty Program for a time, but it lapsed 2 or 3 years ago.
Personally I'd say that we have both faired very well over the years, my Early 17" Core Duo didn't start getting lines until towards the end of it's 6th year.

Why am I having lines/borders appearing around my placed Illustrator images in my Indesign Document?

After I save my InDesign Document and close it... When I open it back up again. There are borders around all of my Illustrator placed images.
I can't seem to find out what is causing them or how to get rid of them.
When I am working on the file with it open they are not there.. it's only after I save, close and reopen.
What the heck????

Thanks for asking Will....
I've gotten so confused with back issues of the file....saved in InDesign CC that I just started over..
Was simpler to do that than to try to fix the one I was working on.....
But while I have you trying to help me..
Could you tell me how to set the document setup for a new document in InDesign CC to inches?
I tried going into the preferences.... it's not there.. Looked through all of the preferences.. still can't find it.
The documents I'm working on are 47" x 28" or thereabouts and I am having to go back to InDesign 5.5
create the document there then open it in InDesign CC to have it the right size.
Thanks for your help!

In Reminders on IOS7 on IPAD a Black Line has appeared around line 17/18. I cannot enter more lines after this

A mysterious Black Line has appeared in one of my Reminder sections on the Reminders App on Ipad 4. It is around Line 17/18.
It does not at the moment appear on my iphone using the same app
Has anyone else experienced this problem?

I have the same problem, and have for many mounth now, searched for an alternative til iOS Reminders which can sync. to Exchange, but we cannot find one. We use Tasks in Outlook very much.
We have several iPad's with the problem, and we can not solve the problem.
Apple will NOT listen to us, they just say we have to restore the system, but it does not solve the problem!!
Very frustating.
Now the Microsoft Surface 2 look, like a good alternative, and we will go in that direction. We cannot live with thi issue.
Apple is NOT for bussiness.

When aligning to center, a white line of space is there even when the artwork fits to artboard

This is what happens when i have multipel artboards and i align to center, some of the artboard have this white space, even when the artworks themselvs fit perfectly.
when i move the artboard, so does the white space
another funny thing is when i align to center of artboard the art is my mask moves so the art is simply not in center anymore.
last but not least, even then the smartguides tells me it is aligned with the other box, it looks fine and all but when i let go to place it, it moves down under or above.. and both of lines have been exported, Align to Pixel Grid is off, i have uncheck align new objects to pixel grid and unchecked the all snap to..
Anybody knows what is going on?

I don't understand the problem. Please post the complete screenshot. And possibly the outline view.

**HELP** Unwanted white lines/shapes appear when Brush tool is used

I have been using Photoshop Elements for several years and I really liked it.But just recently I found out that in Photoshop Elements 10, whenever I use Brush or Smart Brush Tools, unwanted white ines/dots/shapes appear on the pictures. This is driving me crazy! What went wrong?? I've done the following:
Reset all preferences by clicking Ctrl + Alt + Shift
Reset all tools.
Restart my computer.
Nothing worked! Please help!!!
I have attached the original and the picturec problems below:
Original: very clean background
Problem: What are those lines??????

Yes I did solve the problem!
Thanks to everyone that suggested things, but none of them worked. In the end it was Wacom, yes... WACOM that solved the problem. Even though it was an Adobe Photoshop issue as far as I could tell. So thank you Wacom, you helped me when I needed it most.
So now to the vital solution:
"Thank you for your recent enquiry regarding pen tool in Adobe Photoshop CS3.
Please try the step below for reset CS3
For MAC, please hold pressing command + alt+ shift, then open Photoshop.
Get the CS3 update. Start CS3 while holding.
If the problem remains, uninstall and reinstall Adobe Photoshop CS3 again."
Worked the first time for me. So spread the word! This issue shall trouble people no more, a solution has been found!

Thin White Line Or Border Around Web Page

Hi
I do not know if this is my table because I have added the following code to the table in the page to stop this from happening...
width="100%" height="100%" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" border="0"
Yet there is still still a white border going around my web page?
I also have added this to the body code in CSS:
body
margin-top:0px;
margin-right:0px;
margin-bottom:0px;
margin-left:0px;
Any advice?

Could you post a link to your test page so that we can view it in our browsers.
Thanks.

My i phone is locked up my apps when i touch them have a line or box around it

my iphone is locked with a line around whatever you touch or a box around the app

Sounds like you have VoiceOver enabled.
With VoiceOver enabled, VoiceOver speaks the items on the screen along with having an outline around the selected item.
To select an item, you touch it and the selected item will be voiced.
To activate the selected item - the selected item will have an outline around it, double-tap it.
To scroll, flick three fingers.
You need to work your way to Settings > General > Accessibility > VoiceOver > Off.
Or with your iPhone connected to iTunes, under the Summary tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes, select Configure Universal Access. Select Neither for Seeing - to deselect VoiceOver followed by selecting OK.

How do I get rid of an ugly white line around areas of type?

Hello InDesign forum,
Attached is a screenshot of a pdf file I created of a brochure I designed.
Actually, it's just one panel of that brochure. In that panel there are unsightly white lines that appear around areas of type.
I have yet to find a way to get rid of them, and I'm not sure what causes them.
The brochure started out as an InDesign CS5 file and then I converted it to a .pdf file so it would be print-ready for PSPrint, Alpha Graphics, or a similar printing facility.
Any advice you can share about what is causing these lines, and how to get rid of them, would be very helpful and much appreciated. Thanks!

It is one of two things. Either the frames actually have a stroke applied to them, or they have some sort of transparency effect and you are flattening the transparency in the PDF and these are transparency flattening artifacts called "stitching." From the screen capture it looks as if it might even be both -- stroked frames onthe white type at the top, and stitching around the yellow type.
If it's a stroke, set the stroke color to [None]. To eliminate stitching export to Acrobat 5 or higher compatibilty to keep the transparency live. Stitching doesn't usually show up in press output, but it may in lower-resolution digital prints.

White lines around transparent gifs

I've tried without success to eliminate the thin white line
that appears around my transparent gifs in Fireworks. Does anyone
know how to achieve this?

The problem is how GIFs render transparency. What might help
is to change the "matte" color found in the Optimize panel. It's
probably set to white. Set it to match the background color of
wherever the GIF is going to go.
Because GIFs can't have semi-transparency, then anti-aliased
(smoothed) edges basically have to have a background color baked
into those pixels, that's what the matte color it. However, if you
use PNG32 or PNG8 with Alpha Transparency, it will remain smooth.
The only problem is the same problem with most things on the web:
Internet Explorer. Alpha Transparency doesn't work in Internet
Explorer 6 or below, without using some crazy hacks you'd have to
google for.
