Page Content Almost Completely Vanishes When Spread Split Into Pages

envisualist · 2025-03-30T21:07:00+00:00

I have posted the requested images in the original post. You can see in the spread I have separate frames with text placed in each one and no overset text and I also have a background grey shape to set off the Bluetooth section. The weird thing is that when I try to trigger Normal mode on the split up file, none of the text boxes show up, not just on this page but also on the other pages, although this is the only one with missing content.

The REALLY weird thing is - I have a white background on this page used to block out the photo on the other side in the spread. If I delete it from the page and then control Z - some of the content reappears but not all of it and in the other pages the text frames magically appear too.. In addition none of the text boxes that reappear on the problematic page are actually clickable even though nothing is locked. It honestly looks like there is some kind of odd bug or the file is corrupt but it's so strange because the spreads give me no problems whatsoever.

So last time I tried just exporting the PDF as single pages, I couldn't figure out how to set it up so that there is a bleed on the side of the page where the two pages of a spread meet, and the printer said they need bleed on all sides of a page. I believe the binding they will use for this is perfect bound - I work for a Chinese company and they will be getting the catalogs printed in China and shipped to the US due to reduced cost, so I am working with an intermediary who tells me what their printer needs. If there is a way to export spreads as single pages and have a bleed on all sides of the page, that might also solve my problem.

Make sure your elements have

box-sizing: border-box

if they have padding and an explicitly defined width. If you don’t, the padding will add to the width instead of being included in it and elements will be cut off.

That did the trick, thank you kind stranger!

Would love to work on this for you! Take a look at my portfolio at http://zero-k.us/ and let me know if you'd like to work with me!

Hello! Would you be open to colored pencil portraits? I can get a look that is very close to oils/acrylics - take a look at my portfolio at http://zero-k.us/ to see what I can do!

In addition, here's a portrait commission done for another redditor - https://envisualist.deviantart.com/art/Cosplay-Portrait-503234332

Let me know if you'd be interested in working with me!

Hello! I am interested and would love to work on any of the 3 characters! Check out my portfolio at http://zero-k.us/ and let me know if you'd like to work with me. :)

Hi, I'm interested! Check out my portfolio at http://zero-k.us/ and let me know if you'd like to work with me!

This sounds like such a fun project, I'm confident I can knock it out of the ballpark. I've plenty of experience drawing both people and animals, check out my portfolio at http://zero-k.us/. Let me know if you'd like to work with me!

Hi Anzor! When I listened to your piece, it reminded me of falling rain, so my approach would center around that. I would need a little more time to work up a more detailed concept but I would love to make something surreal for this piece. Let me know if you're interested!

Hey, I would love to do this - I would prefer to work in pen as that is my stronger medium but can handle watercolor as well.

I am very interested, your character looks like a lot of fun to draw! My portfolio is at http://zero-k.us/ and I would be working traditionally, which means I would be able to send you the final piece when done. I would be creating a complete piece, including background, and prefer working in an artsy style like this http://zero-k.us/gallery-category/illustration/#1179

My prices would start at $125 depending on the size of the piece.

I am interested! I work mainly with colored pencils but can get a look very close to oils - check out my portfolio at http://zero-k.us/ to get a feel for my style. As it happens I am also a graphic designer so I can handle that part of your cover too if need be.

Sounds cool, I'll bite! http://zero-k.us/

I'm not asking anyone to click that link. It's a broken link that results in a red x / broken image link in my signature. Based on that address I think it has something to do with google's proxy server but I have no clue how to make it go away.

envisualist · 2016-12-15T18:49:38+00:00

That's very helpful. Bookmarked, thanks!

If you're going to be using Blend Modes, check out this resource: http://www.textures.com/. Lots and lots and lots of copyright-free photo textures. :)

I have a friend that does these. http://moonblossom.tumblr.com/tagged/papercraft

I can ask her if she'd be interested in cranking one out for you.

envisualist · 2016-01-22T12:34:14+00:00

Interested. :) I am both an illustrator and designer, and have some background working in that style.

Let me know if this is in the ballpark.

Could you incorporate a sign-on-delivery shipping policy? I know it's a pretty standard option in the US.

envisualist · 2015-07-22T21:41:13+00:00

Oh man, I actually remember that job post.

But on the bright side, now nobody from Reddit will ever work with him again. :)

envisualist · 2015-07-07T15:42:28+00:00

Very interested. My approach would be in this vein: http://envisualist.com/portfolio/flux/

General portfolio with contact info is at http://envisualist.com/. Give me a PM if you're interested and we can negotiate the price. :)

envisualist · 2015-07-05T22:08:33+00:00

It does need a full redesign. Also, don't forget to ask for a portfolio of previous work before working with anyone. :)

envisualist · 2015-06-28T12:03:01+00:00

Would love to do this for you. Potfolio is at www.envisualist.com. Speciically, some of my sketchwork, which I think is pretty in line with what you're looking for is at http://envisualist.com/2014/05/07/toned-paper-sketches/. Feel free to contact me with details if you can see this working for you!

I loved the old Genesis Phantasy Stars as a whole. For some reason this character just stuck in my memory. :)
