Why the White Lines around imported Photoshop Images
Working in CS6, importing native Photoshop images into an Illustrator gradient. Certain imported Photoshop images, with transparent background, produce white lines bordering the images. The white lines stand out against the AI gradient. The whites lines are not visable on screen. They came out in the commercially printed product. The overall AI document, with PS images placed and linked, was save to a PDF. It was then printed from the PDF. The PDF, as viewed on screen, does not show the white lines either. Why and how do the white border lines (the box surrounding the image) appear?
First I would recommend making sure there are indeed »no pixels« there in Photoshop – applying the Layer Style Stroke can help locate stray, semitransparent pixels.
Other than that I am afraid your print service provider may not have provided optimal output.
What print process was employed anyway?
It looks like flattening effects, but those should simply not be visible in print.
They happen when exporting X1 or X3 pdfs, which disallow transparency, so in creating the pdf the psd files that have transparency are flattened with whatever background and often broken up into smaller parts.
That way a whole mess of fragmentary images can be created, as one can see when one opens such a pdf in Illustrator.
One can avoid that by creating X4 pdfs, which do allow transparency, but if those can be processed by the printer is another question.
But this issue might be more suitable to the Illustrator or pdf Fora.

Removing the blue line around a linked image in IE
I've got a "bookmark this page" button that I can't get the
blue line off of. I got it out in firefox by giving the image a
style with the color of the background but the success didn't
transfer over to IE. I tried using the hotspot tool and linking it
that way but it didn't work. It just reloaded the page. Any
suggestions? (thanks in advance for not being a jack *** to a
newbie) Much appreciated.

column.Adding the border="0" will cause your pages not to validate
in a strict
doctype.

I have a CMYK file, outlined product, that looks perfect in Photoshop. When I place the image into Illustrator, it shows up with a thin white line around parts of the product (fyi - it shows up on a print as well). I have tried to place an RGB file and it does not have the white line around the product. I assume it has something to do with it being CMYK, but I'm at a loss on how to fix this. I'm desperate for any help.
Okay, please refer this image and change the option within Ai General preferences. Uncheck the option Anti-Aliased artwork.

Hi everyone,
I keep getting a white line appear around images I save in
Photoshop and then insert into Dreamweaver. It happens when I also
save text with a transparent background. The text has a very faint
white line around it. Why is this?Where are you seeing this, in PS? or DW design view or in a
browser?
When you insert your pics in an HTML page with 0 border, do
you still see
the border?
This is not a graphics forum. Adobe has a PS forum at

DW8-Fine white line around images
DW8 - On some of my images there is a very fine white line
around the edge when the site is previewed in the browser. The site
has an almost-black background color (181714), and I use the same
color in making the image backgrounds (in Photoshop CS), for
example roll-over images. How do I get rid of this?You wouldn't set this in the Property inspector, you'd set it
in the CSS,
and the only time you need it would be when the image is
within a link:
a img { border:none; }
Also, you wouldn't expect this effect to produce a white
border - it would
be a blue one (by default).
I'm guessing the fine white line is part of the image (it's
easy to
undercrop when the canvas is white).
> I've noticed
> that in tables, having nothing there is "bigger" than
specifying a zero.
If you have nothing there, you will get the default value for
the all of the
table attributes, which is often (but not always) not zero.

After importing pictures they became grey with doted white line around
I have imported pictures (RAW CR2 format) from my camera hundreds of times and they all went well. But this time the only the import worked well (I saw the preview when each picture was imported). Then Iphoto asked if i would like to delete the pictures on the camera after import. I deleted them. But then when I should take a look at the pictures they were grey with doted white lines around all of them. When I chose a picture and check the properties I can see that the pictures use normal space. I tried to drag one picture to a directory in the finder but this didn´t work either. The export doesn't work either. When I scroll fast among the pictures I can see them for a short period but when I stop scrolling they will turn grey with doted white line around. Whats wrong? and how to solve?
system: iPhoto11 and Lion.The ! turns up when iPhoto loses the connection between the thumbnail in the iPhoto Window and the file it represents.
Option 1
Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
If that fails:
Option 2
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one. .

White lines around a swatch in Illustrator
Hi there,
I need help with a swatch that I have created in illustrator. Once the swatch is applied as a fill there is a white line surrounding the original pattern. I have read other blog posts about the issue that state that the lines are just on screen and dissapear when you export as a PDF and when you print. I printed the design today at three different scales (100%, 40%, 20%) and all showed a white line but only on the horizontal axis. Both horizontal and vertical lines are visible when exported as a PDF. The original design is vector.
Here is a screen shot of the design from my computer:
Here is a photo of what the design looked printed (notice that the white lines are ony visible on the vertical axis):
Can anyone shine any light on the issue or offer any solutions? If there are any other important details i have missed please let me know.
Many thanks,
KatherineHi Jacob,
I had already read on many a blog post that the issue could be only 'on screen' and that when printed it would dissapear. But when i printed not all lines dissapeared.Yes I think this may have been the case for the horizontal axis as when I printed it dissapeared (see second image on my initial post) but it still showed on the vertical axis.
Thanks for your suggestion,
Katherine -
White lines around texts with object effects applied
I am having a persistent problem with InDesign's output of PDFs when I have applied object effects to text boxes.
When I use an effect—such as emboss (shown in samples) or outer glow—on a text box, the PDF renders it with white lines around the text boxes (sometimes with more than one).
See the attached samples; the boxes are clearly visible with a 3rd party PDF viewer, such as Skim; less so with Acrobat Pro, but still there. It's there when I open the PDF in Photoshop, as well.
I've tried playing with transparency flattening settings, and with merging the layers into a single layer. No help.
The sample shown has an emboss effect applied, transparency flattening set to high resolution (ignoring style overrides), and a single merged layer.
Any help?
In Acrobat Pro:
In Photoshop:
In Skim:Thanks so much, Bob.
My printer requires that I use the PDF/X-1a:2001 standard for PDF export, which means that it must be Acrobat 4 or later compatibility.
Also: I don't see how to NOT flatten, when exporting PDF for print; the options for flattening are "low resolution," "medium resolution," or "high resolution"—but there is not an option to NOT flatten. Do you know a work-around for this? -
White lines around flash embed
I've created a gif animation and saved it as a flash doc. When I put it into a GoLive page, it has a one pixel white line around the top and one side (the side sometimes switches depending on the animation). This is not in my animation files and it prevents me from using a black background or butting another image on top of it.
Any thoughts on what's causing it and how to get rid of it?go back and capture from the source tape

I know that some similar things have been discussed. The only reason that Im bringing this up is that some have said that a white jagged line around a black object will not appear in print, and to check it by making a pdf out of it. I made a pdf and the white line still shows up. If I take this to the printer tomorrow is the white line going to print if it shows in the pdf? or do I have nothing to fear?
Thanks for your help!You can tell if it is only a preview artifact by zooming in incrementally and seeing if the white increases proportionally or of it stays abut the same thickness as you zoom in closer.

Captured ftg from DVD created from digi-beta from original 35mm film. Editing a 4 minute trailer but certain clips (30%) show short curved white lines around heads, figures, etc. Sort of like zebra but not? One clip has first frame with horizontal white lines top to bottom. Same clip shows up as green screen in QT file I made. Also a few freeze frames for a second or two. 70% of trailer is fine. Thought maybe the capture had wrong settings?

Annoying white line around artwork
There's a strage thin white line around a black artwork, it's easier to see it with red background.
It's hard to see it so i zoomed in.
Here's the Appearance panel with this object selected:
How do I get rid of it?
Illustrator CS5
Windows 7Set your black artwork to either:
Overprint and view in Overprint Preview or Multiply (in Transparency).
That way you won't see the white lines.
On the other hand, although they won't show up in print, those white lines (when viewed in CMYK preview) can sometimes be a useful indicator that an overprint is required. -
The white line over the text in a title
how can I enlarge the white line over the text in a title to not have the text out of the frame when I want to add another line?
If you are speaking of the white bar upon which you are entering text in say a 'gradient edge' title, click title in the inspector window having the title selected. There you can change the width of the horizontal bar:
In the screenshot above I have used gradient edge title. The bar is of black color and you can change the color to white or any other color by tinkering with the controls in the inspector window [red oval]; you can also increase or decrease with the bar's width by changing its parameters within the 'yellow rectangle'; and, if you so need, you can push up or push down the bar by manipulating the bar vertical position tool located below the yellow rectangle.
Hope this helps. If the white line you have mentioned above is something other than the bar I have referred to, then let me know. Cheers. Have a great day.
