Variable Text Frame doesn't preview properly

[Imposition_Novice]

Not sure why the Text Frame is mirroring during preview. I have to optimize or rasterize the file before going to Fusion pro to achieve a correct preview for positioning. The file was originally created from Illustrator. Is there something wrong I'm doing on my part?

I'm on Windows 7 Pro Acrobat XI with Fusion Pro ver 9.3.9.

You need to edit the PDF to remove the static content you're making variable, namely the number. You can use the Edit PDF tool in Acrobat to do this.

I'm not really after the static content. If you move around the variable text frame from the sample, the frame is mirroring the background and thus move around too.

There was some weirdness going on with the page boxes in the PDF. I used PitStop to fix them. See attached.

 

The job would have composed correctly. Dan is correct, you still want to remove the static number under the variable text frame.

Thank David and Dan. I have fixed the file long before I sent it to this thread via optimizing though FreeFlow Core, I was just curious as to why it's doing that. I am still in the process of digging a file made from Corel Draw I encounter months ago that had similar issue.
