So I've got a weird thing happening. I imported a PNG image to my artboards and when I exported them to pdf they look fine. When I printed multiple artobards on 1 page (9 to be precise) and printed them, this weird box/outline thing showed up. The issue is, it only happens on a few. How do I fix it?

I got tired of manually checking typography in InDesign, so I built a plugin for it (self.indesign)<br>submitted 1 month ago * by LeadershipMuted2201

Hi everyone,

I’ve been working on a tool called Avellio for Adobe InDesign:

https://buy.avellio.app/

7 Day Free TRIAL https://akiramethod.lemonsqueezy.com/checkout

The idea came from a frustration I’ve had for a long time: after more than two decades of InDesign, a surprising amount of final typography checking is still manual.

InDesign has Preflight, of course, but Preflight mostly thinks in terms of production issues: missing fonts, overset text, broken links, color spaces, etc.

What it doesn’t really do well is act like a typography QA layer before export.

I’m talking about the boring but important things designers still have to scan for manually:

widows and orphans

short last lines

repeated words

double spaces

wrong quotation marks

bad punctuation spacing

inconsistent character styles

risky local overrides

visual inconsistencies across longer documents

So I built Avellio to automate as much of that final inspection pass as possible.

It scans an InDesign document, detects typography and style issues, and marks them directly inside the layout so you can review the problems visually instead of hunting through paragraphs one by one.

The goal is not to replace designers or proofreaders. It’s to remove the repetitive inspection work that happens at the end of a project, when everyone is tired and mistakes are most expensive.

I honestly think Adobe could have had something like this built into InDesign years ago. Maybe even decades ago. But since it still isn’t really there, I decided to build it myself.

I’d love...
