Any pdf documents I export from Indesign CC 2017 version 12.1.0.56 has a white border around the pdf page. If I place an image that covers the entire page in indesign the pdf page in acrobat pro dc or acrobat reader dc will have a 1 px size white border around the entire page. This occurs even if I place a solid colored rectangle that covers the entire page. Oddly enough, if I place a smaller solid colored rectangle inside the page that has a solid colored rectangle that covers the entire page, the smaller rectangle does not have a white border. This issue happens even if I only place a thin colored sold rectangle that is flush with one edge of the page in Indesign. The problem still persists even if I expand the rectangle into the paste board.

If I view the pdf in any other pdf viewer such as older versions of acrobat reader like xi or foxit pdf viewer, the white border does not appear. I have read many forum posts and articles on this issue but I can't figure out how to fix this issue. I have tried zooming in and out, changing the theme color in acrobat dc, turning off "smooth line art" option in the preferences etc. and nothing helps. Here is a screen shot, any help would be appreciated, thanks:
