    Why can I not select the transparency flattener preset option when exporting to a pdf?

      Hi all,

      I have not had to use this option in quite a while so may have forgotten a few things.

       

      In InDesign, under Edit>Transparency Flattener Presets, I have created a new preset and included the option of converting all text to outlines.

      However, when I try to export to a PDF, the option to select a transparency flattener preset is greyed out.

       

      Can you tell me what I may be doing wrong? This is driving me crazy!:(

       

      (There was originally no transparency in the file, so I created some with a white square set to 0.5% opacity).

       

      Thanks in advance for your help!

       

      Best regards,

      Christine
