I copied a logo from a Word document and pasted it into a box I created to contain the logo, some text and a jpg. It looked fine. But when I exported the page as a pdf, suddenly you can see a few lines by the logo, as if parts of a text box copied over with it. Where did I go wrong?

What format was the original logo and why would want to copy it from Word instead of just using the original?

Peter, the black and white logo image was sent to me as a .docx Word file. I copied the image and pasted to Pages template. Looked fine. I saved it to a pdf. However, when I opened the pdf, there was a line down the right side of the logo and across the top (from left to right).
If you have Word/LibreOffice (free)extract the logo aas the image fileand use that. Right click on the image and go Save as……
It appears it is showing you an artifact from the enclosing Word image box.
This is one of those painful things PC users do. Why they think an object such as an image needs to be in Word or PowerPoint totally has me slapping my forehead.

That reminds me of a member at church who was sending me some photos for the newsletter. He would send me a Word file with several pictures & I asked him to send the original images. So he sent me individual Word files with one image each. It turned out he had no idea how to attach an image to an e-mail & really only knew how to send Word docuemnts from within Word. And this was one of the more computer-literate members. Reminds me of why I quit doing the newsletter!
Thanks--it worked. But what a whipping to get there. I was sent a signature that came as a .bmp extension.
I'm having to do the same **** conversion with LIbre Office.
