I have a document which I can't export as a pdf properly. I export it but the pdf it creates is nothing like it's meant to be. It has some graphics missing and several other items are just not there and there is a large area with a green to yellow gradient which just appears as solid yellow. A few of the items are there on the page where they're meant to be but that's all.
If I PRINT to .pdf instead of exporting, it is much better. Everything is at least there and the gradient is fine, but there are scratchy looking lines on the surface of the pdf around some of the graphics. Even thougn in both the export and print I am choosing the highest quality pdf option.
I thought exporting was supposed to be the right way to do it. Why is it behaving like this?
Should I just perhaps always print and forget about exporting?
