Annotation Halo disappears on PDF export

[DavideBollo]

Good morning to everyone, I think I've found a serious problem with halo, annotation and *.pdf export.

In my printed pdf, halo is completely disappeared. The same occurs with "simulate overprint" option enabled on exporting.

Tried with ArcGIS Pro 3.5.x and 3.6.x on Win11.

I tried everything:

• export resolution up to 1200dpi;
• enabling and disabling color management;
• different type of compression.

Now i'm approaching to v3.7. Hope it will works.

Has anyone encountered the same problem?

Have you tried png instead of pdf?

Hi @DavideBollo 

What font are you using for the annotation?  Also, are you embedding the font when exporting to PDF?

Thanks,

Tom

In PDF, go down to Fonts section, turn on Embed fonts.  

I had the same thing that if you don't turn that on, then I get weird fonts ....

See if that works for you.
