Oliver,
I had posted the same question 08-28-2001. I believe the responses indicated that it has to do with the number of nodes a feature has before it will begin producing phantom lines. If you go to http://lists.directionsmag.com/discussion and do a search on "Phantom" and make sure you do the search on message bodies you should get the previous discussion on this topic. I believe the solution was to edit and reduce the node count for all the features that might be in question. Hope that helps Dan Oliver <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> on 04/17/2002 03:50:47 AM To: "'MapInfo-L (E-mail)" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> cc: Subject: MI-L Another problem with Adobe Distiller HI all, Following on from yesterday's Adobe question... I'm having some difficulties with acrobat distiller, not related to text, but to region objects. The pdfs produced have 'phantom' lines which are visible at certain zooms, but do not show up when the pdf is printed. The lines are either vertical or horizontal and seem to appear in the same places - it is very repeatable. I have tried the following: 1. using different resolution options 2. re-installing Distiller 3. printing to a .ps file then opening in distiller (tried with several printer drivers) 4. using PDFWriter 5. updating to 5.0.5 I am using MI 6.5 with Windows 2000. I have also checked the tables that seem to generate the problem, and they don't have any 'unusual' topology problems or crazy nodes etc. It's been suggested to me that it could be a memory issue, does anyone know if this kind of behaviour is a possible consequence of insufficient memory? (admittedly I do only have 256Mb, but the maps in question are really tiny and spool to the printer at less than 10Mb) Anyone have any ideas as I'm starting to get a bit desperate...?
