Is the black outline part of the InDesign file? It would be helpful to see a screen shot of the InDesign spread with View > Screen Mode > Preview on, and then the corresponding spread in Acrobat or Reader. Use the button outlined in orange, below, to include images in your reply.
By the way, you posted your question in the non-technical Lounge forum, which is where you can connect with your peers for conversations that don't directly relate to product help and support. I’ll move your question to the InDesign forum so that you can get the answer you are looking for. For a list of all available product forums, see https://forums.adobe.com/welcome/

Hi Sandra!
The only black line I can see is around the paper edge—which is non-printing. Perhaps the selected frames are obscuring another line? Would you mind posting a full-window second screen shot with the following in effect?
That way we can see everything and pinpoint the issue.

I wonder if there is a black-stroked box (frame) on the Master Page? Simply switching on Visible Guides and Baseline Grids (in PDF export dialog box) would not account for this.

I would go looking in the Pages Panel. I would double-click on the Master Page icons (or labels) in order to get on the Master Page. See if there is a black-stroked box on that page. Perhaps also, someone made a locked layer (look at the Layers Panel) and the black frame is locked down on a layer. Of course, the object frame itself might have been individually locked.

Hi again, Sandra Pernille. Why don't you start with the screen shot I outlined above? Follow the three steps, then take a screen shot.
