red spots = orchid measles!
Default

First off, it is not sunburn. Trust me.
I have been growing lots of these complex for years, and whether it's complex or maudiae or parvi, all my paphs get quite strong light that many people might get shocked based on misinformation of paph=low light orchids.
Plus, the grower herself says this plant does not get strong light, and sun burn does not look like this on paphs and it will occur on the top leaves if ever.

For some reason, some of my compelx paphs have leave issues. They do not quite start like yours.
Mine will have either the tip or ridge near the tip will start having indented brown or yellowish, and sometime even black, and then they start to progress. This does not seem to care the age of the leaves it affects.
So far, I have not been able to tell what the cause it.
I thought maybe it's something that complex hybrids are susceptible to because I don't see this happen to my other types of paphs.
