      I have a placed a square photograph with a drop shadow. All is well until I rotate it. It looks fine in InDesign but when I export to Press Quality PDF I get a strange effect: A grey “ghost” square of flat shading appears on the area where the square would have been had I not rotated it. The drop shadow is fine but this “effect” is an additional piece of shading separate from the drop shadow. If I decrease the percentage of the drop shadow, the grey shading in the square also decreases but is still obvious. Is there something I need to check when outputting the PDF? The “ghost square” does not appear on low-res PDF. The image plus drop shadow looks fine on the InDesign page.

      Your help much appreciated.
