Why does the gradient disappear when I export my document to PDF?

I have used gradient tool on simple black lines to make them fade out as they reach the edge of the document. When I export the document to PDF the lines are simply black, no gradient whatsoever. I'm a beginner at this. I'm putting together something for a wedding, and really need to fix this pronto! HELP!

Version of InDesign? OS? Print or Export to PDF and settings used?
What sort of gradient did you apply? Some screen shots of the line in ID and the PDF would help.

  • Why does the cursor disappear completely?

    The cursor disappears completely from the screen sometimes (I have a microsoft wireless mouse), and it does no good to use the pad either. Sometimes if I close the Mac, go away and come back, the cursor has returned. Other times I have to turn off the mac.  Advice?

    Because the bottom of the computer is blocking the display.

  • Why does the slider disappear every time I use it to move the window (Windows: FF 32.0)?

    Why does the slider disappear every time I use it to move the window (Windows: FF 32.0)? How do I get the slider back?

    Problem solved: I have been using Walnut for Firefox ver. 2.0.28 theme. For some reason this has been causing the problem. Started FF in Safe Mode, and the slider problem disappeared. Then proceeded to re-enable the Walnut theme: the problem reappeared. Disabled Walnut theme and reenabled all my other add-ons (about 6 of them). Still no problem. So, clearly there is a problem with the use of Walnut theme in FF ver. 32, at least on my Windows 7 installation.
    Thanks for all your suggestions and help. Good job, all!

  • With "Do Not Disturb" active, why does the iPhone beep when plug in for recharge?

    With "Do Not Disturb" active, why does the iPhone beep when plug in for recharge?
    I usually go to bed after my wife. I have the Do Not Disturb set for 11 pm to 7 am, and I can see the moon symbol.
    So why when I go to bed at midnight and plug in my iPhone to recharge do I get a LOUD BEEP?
    My wife is banning my phone from being next to my bed and an alarm clock.
    To me it seems that the "Do Not Disturb" should turn this beep into a vibrate.

    section2i:
    If that is true, then you should file that as a bug using the link above:
    If I am reading what you are saying correctly, you are saying that when vibrate is 'off', and you turn on the phone and plug it in that a vibration occurs, and that it is not respecting the vibrate 'off'.
    That would be a slightly different issue from what I am asking about (Do Not Disturb), and would probably need a separate bug report.

  • Why does added text disappear when I move the cursor

    After adding text to an unprotected .pdf file the text disappears when I move the cursor and want to add a second box of text. The text in the first box reappears when I double click on the space where the box was. How do I set the text so that it remains visible and printable?

    Hi,
    I think the data in the PDF file was filled-in using MAC preview.
    One option is to ask the user to fill the file again using Adobe Reader or Acrobat.
    Or else refer to following link:

  • USB - why does the MacBook react when in Sleep?

    Why does the computer react to when something is inserted into the USB while in Sleep mode, when the lid is closed???
    I'm simply reminding myself to put it back in, and have no intention of using the computer at that very moment, the lid is closed and I probably won't be using it for a little while.
    So why does it do that? Why doesn't it stay asleep and then react to it when it is back on? Seems like a waste of power to me.

    This is just the way it is. The computer doesn't read your intent so it sees something occur and has to try to wake up and allow the process to connect that device correctly. If it did not do this and you woke the computer after adding something that wasn't there before it could cause a problem. The computer wakes up expecting to see one thing and it's not there something else is in it's place. This could cause kernal panic.

  • Why does my text disappear when I place it on the page in CS4?

    The text frame is visible. Is there a setting I have inadvertently used? The text in the  frame is visible on the pasteboard but when I place it on the board, I get the little red overflow indicator on the text frame. Can't figure this one out. It is in its own layer on top.Thanks.

    Thanks! You guys are fast and it is early there!
    I will try this out. Feel siily!

  • Why is the sound disappearing when I send a video?

    I have an iPhone 5C.  When I record a video and send it, the sound disappears!  I can hear it just fine when I play the video back on my phone, but if I send the video to someone, they can't hear it.  Why is this happening?  I tested it by sending it to my email, and sure enough, the sound is gone!  Am I doing something wrong when I send it, or is there a setting that is off somewhere that I need to adjust?

    I can't even see where that setting is.. for my information all the footage is from a GoPro so what I've had to do is convert them to .mov and Apple ProRes 422 now. Now when I have them in final cut the samples in 'All Clips' and in the time line look ok in till I hover over them and then they have the red hint again, they do how ever export the right colour now but this is going to make colour correction difficult

  • Why does the sound disappear halfway through every song???

    I went jogging yesterday and about halfway through every song the sound would disappear without the song pauseing. When I skipped a few seconds forwards or backwards in the song the sound came back. Then it played for about 1 minute before the sound disappeared again. I am the only one using the account. I have tried to log out and deleteing the app and downloading it again, but nothing works :(  This only happens when I am using my headphones from my Iphone. Spotify on my computer works fine and so does spotify on my phone if I dont use the headphones. My headphones are new and I have tried using others, but it is still the same problem!PLEASE HELP ME

    same thing is happening with my iphone,its not the headphones as far as i can tell trying to find out what the problem is but not having much luck

  • Why does the colours change when I import a video?

    When I play my fresh footage in quicktime the colours look fine, as soon as I add the footage to final cut the colouring goes all odd. It has a Red tinge to it and the blues look as if they have turned to a sort of purple? They look like this in 'All Clips' and the previewer, yet when I look at the timeline the colours look ok.
    I've also made 'All' is selected on the channels so it isn't that. Is there a way I can do a mass reset on Final cut to put it right? Does this on all videos I import and events I create!

    I can't even see where that setting is.. for my information all the footage is from a GoPro so what I've had to do is convert them to .mov and Apple ProRes 422 now. Now when I have them in final cut the samples in 'All Clips' and in the time line look ok in till I hover over them and then they have the red hint again, they do how ever export the right colour now but this is going to make colour correction difficult

  • Why does my image disappear when I click on it to enlarge?

    I am using iPhoto '11, version 9.4.3  When I click on a single photo from an event to see and enlarge it, the image disappears, and what I see is a  black screen with a large triangle and an exclamation point inside the triangle.  What does this mean? I don't think the photo is actually disappeared because I can still see it in the smaller size.

    Apply the two fixes below in order as needed:
    Fix #1
    1 - launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
    2 - run Option #4 to rebuild the database.
    Fix #2
    Using iPhoto Library Manager  to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
    1 - download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
    2 - click on the Add Library button and select the library you want to add in the selection window..
    3 - Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the Library ➙ Rebuild Library menu option.
    4 - In the next  window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
    5 - Click on the Create button.
    Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments.  However, books, calendars, cards and slideshows will be lost. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.

  • Why does my image disappear when I create a slice?

    I am trying to create a simple rollover where the font size is changed when the mouse hovers over the link. When I create a slice of the text area, the image disappears. Can anyone tell me why and how to correct this? I have viewed several tutorials, so I am confident that I have created the 2 states properly and am applying the slice correctly, but for some reason the image disappears in both states when I do.

    Thanks, Jim. Can you tell me how I can determine if I have the correct slice type selected (image vs HTML)?
