If I have a Illustrator document with linework on a layer, then a photo on a layer on top of it, when I print to PDF I get very thin white lines on the photo where the underlying linework is.

It doesnt print with the lines, but they’re annoying if you send the PDF to other who can’t see past the lines on screen and think its the end of the world. I’ve tried everything I can think of as well as googling, but hopefully one of you will have solved this problem.

Thanks
