Stoke Weight
Hi
In InDesign CS and CS4, if a weight stroke is applied to a word or line, then changed back to zero, when producing a PDF file, an outline can still be visible around the text.
See attached PDF
Any ideas why?
Regards
George

Inappropriate?This is due to a change in behavior made to accommodate customer requests (the particulars are lost in my memory). When you change to a 0pt weight, it no longer removes the stroke color. A zero width stroke color on text can still produce a result because the shape is drawn based on the outline without the PS/PDF methods used to best render fonts at various sizes. The solution is to remove the stroke colorant using the color proxies on the tool panel and the color and/or swatches panels.
Sincerely,
Matthew

Thank you Matthew.
It worked.
I have been trying to solve this problem with Adobe support for a while now and I was getting nowhere.

Inappropriate?George,
I'm glad to hear I could be of help. I'm sorry for the inconvenience. Though I can't remember the problem that was solve, I remember it as being worse than this side effect of it.
While we're doing what we can to improve the abilities of our support agents, some things just come from experience and an agent supporting many products may never have as deep of knowledge as some customers, or someone like myself who's worked on developing InDesign since 1.0. So be sure to try our user to user forums:

And keep using the GetSatisfaction community.
Cheers!
Matt
