Floating orange spot in Pages document

I have a floating orange spot which appears in all my Pages documents and I do not know how to remove it. It stays in the same spot on my screen as I page up and down. Can anyone help me?

You can easily determine if you have a hardware or software issue. A reliable method to confirm a screen or other hardware fault is to take a screenshot when the artefact is evident - and then review the captured screenshot image...


When reviewed, if the artefact is not present in the screenshot image, then you have demonstrated that you have a hardware fault that will require investigation/repair. If the artefact is visible in the screenshot, the something other than hardware will be the cause.


Note: When reviewing the image, rotating the iPad screen orientation by 90°, from Portrait to Landscape, will ensure that the image does not coincide with screen defects if present.

If the test indicates suggests a hardware issue, a visit to the Genius Bar at your local Apple Store is recommended - where the technicians will be able to test and assess your iPad. This will likely inform your next steps:
