AutoCAD Map 3D :: 2013 Labels Not Displaying When Plotting / Exporting
Jun 27, 2013
I've searched this Discussion Groups area on the site and have found a couple solutions. I've tried them all but I can't seem to figure out how to get ALL of my labels to display when I plot or when I export to PDF. It seems that only the POLES layer labels are having trouble showing up...
I understand scaling and it doesn't seem to be the issue. I've tried plotting under different scales, and I still get the same thing.I've attached an image showing the outcome.
On the left is the PRINT PREVIEW in AutoCAD.
On the right is the EXPORTED PDF.
I've checked in the administrator under POLE LABELS, and changed a couple things around but I can't seem to get the pole labels to show up.

The major and minor station alignment labels keep disappearing in my drawing. I've had some luck by removing and re-adding the labels but this has stopped working. Is this an issue that will be resolved by Service Pack 1?

refer to attached screen shot . I've successfully linked 3 excel spread sheets that is inside 1 file into my autocad drawing. Everything looks fine, so i then save the file and closed it. When i open the drawing the 2 spread sheets turns white and unable to print, but the last one looks and prints fine.

I have labelled features in a shp file and it appears fine on the screen. They even appear when I do a print preview but when I actually plot it the labels do not print? How I can get them to print?
I am trying to label highways using the route number attribute in the dbf file associated with the shp file. I was able to label the features using the style editor and using the display manager. It seemed fine and worked great until I went to print the maps off.The labels are dynamic and scale with the drawing I am sure this has something to do with it. Is there a way to have these labels be static?

I'm using Civil 3D 2012. When it generates labels (alignment stationing, profile station & elevation, etc.), it keeps generating them in layer 0. It does not matter how I change the styles to the layer that I want.
It allows me to change the properties of the labels to the layer that I want after the labels have been generated. They look ok on my computer screen.
However, when I plot the plans, the labels do not follow the lineweights that the layer should be on. I think it still plotting as if it was layer 0. If I explode the labels, I can get them to plot correctly by changing the layer.

Added as shapefile via FDO. Labeled the features using the Style Editor. The labels show up clearly on-screen. But when plotting, either to PDF or hard copy, the labels move so that they overlap one another and are not legible.
how to keep the labels from moving? visible labels on-screen and the PDF of how the labels move when plotting.

Plotting a drawing from layout produces crowded labels,
This is the second time I’m highlighting this issue. I couldn’t figure out how to print a drawing (attached) from the lay out. What I got is a very crowded drawing as shown in the screenshots below.
I wanted to print my drawings (contour, horizontal alignment, vertical alignment, etc.) in an A4 with a scale of 1/1000 or 1/1300. Then what should be:
The annotation scale?
The viewport scale?
The plot scale?
What did I get very crowded drawing when I tried to print from the layout?

I am attempting to export labels from ArcMap 9.3 into an older version of AutoCAD DeskMap (use R14 format). I am able to export polyline, point, and polygon data as a .dwg or a .dxf file and it comes into AutoCAD just fine (properly georeferenced). However, although I am able to pull up labels in Arc itself (say for example the township and range labels on a grid of Alberta), I am unable to export them to AutoCAD. I create a point feature class from my initial layer (and do the appropriate attribute table modifications to get the text to show up), those labels show up just fine in Arc, but then when I attempt to export them, either with the Quick Export tool or the Export to CAD tool either a) only the points show up (correctly georeferenced with no labels) or b) the labels and points show up but are centered around 0,0 instead of where I want them to be. In case b, the text and points are tiny and compressed (the entire grid of township and range divides for Alberta compresses down to something like 13 meters).
Apparently the xy coordinates of the text are coming in wonky. We utilize UTM for our coordinate system (again, the polylines, points and polygons export to this just fine), but for some reason when we create the text feature class (with the associated points) it takes the lat/long coordinates and tries to turn them into UTM, so we're getting coordinates like -113.2376, 55.36101. Maybe I'm not selecting the right column to export?

I'm having an issue plotting or exporting a dwg to pdf. When I have a dwg with a linked excel table and want to plot a layout, everything plots except the excel table. I'm running LT 2012, windows 7 pro (64-bit). I send the same file over to a friend running LT 2011 an he adjust the viewport boundaries slightly and he encounters no problem either plotting or exporting to pdf. I've tried the same with no success. My Adobe Reader is up to date as well.

I would like to be able to use CorelDRAW X3to plot directly with my vinyl plotter without the need of exporting files etc... I recently trialled a program called CoCut by Eurosystems and it worked great but Im not real keen on shelling that much money on the program.
How to prevent other programs importing PLT files from Corel making all lines between nodes straight. It seems to only export the node location and not the info on curves or straight lines which means the other program simply fill in between the nodes with straight lines.

They have one file xrefed into another but the text is not showing up. It is a block and the text is an attribute - but it is exploded.
I have attached 2 images - the first one - of the original file the second - where it is xrefed into another file with the text missing.

I am having trouble with getting the quick properties box to display. I have turned the feature on at the bottom taskbar, and tried Ctrl+Shift+P, and changed settings so that it displays to the top-right of the cursor, but I get nothing when I select any object. It used to work on 2012 but not now.

I am currently in urgent need to open an autocad file (.dwg) that has Chinese characters in it, but no matter I tried to download many different .shx fonts I still couldn't get it displayed.
I tried to talk with the maker of the file, but for some reason and addition with my poor Chinese language, I cannot get him understood what I need him to do (send me the .shx files). I am attaching the .dwg file.

When programming in Autolisp, I like to view the values set to my variables so you type an exclamation point followed by the variable name on the command line to have it display the value. My command line will not display the value. I have to hit the F2 key to bring up the text window to view it. how to get the command line to view this information? We have other computers that show it, but mine will not.

I'm trying to explore possible options for displaying 3D geology models. In the attached I want to chop out the yellow solid and leave the other solids "as is" to reveal the various strata when the yellow solid is removed. I have removed the yellow solid but the results are not quite what I was hoping for.

I have a drawing that is displaying the origin with XYZ and the drawing seems dimmed. It also is running very slow. I feel like I've gotten into an editing mode and was unaware. I've tried chanding views and UCS. When I open other drawings things are normal and faster.

I'm finding a problem with solid fill, drawn in model space its fine, but viewed through a viewport and all I see is the outline of it in wireframe.
I'm not having this problem on other drawings, it's limited to this file, but a colleague has also had as well it so not my workstation. This narrows it down to this specific drawing being the problem.
As regards variables, FILL = 1, FILLMODE=1.
It is just solid objects with the problem, polylines with a width display OK as does fill text.

I am editing a drawing i have inherited from the previous drafter who is no longer working here. this drawing references 2 other drawings. one is the title block, the other is the engineering drawing. both of these drawings have white objects in them, namely, some text and some solid hatching.
Instead ot those white objects appearing as white in this drawing, they are appearing as a grey colour. i have double and triple checked that these objects are coloured by layer and the layer is white in both of the xrefs. they appear white in the xrefs but not in the final drawing.
since we are using colour dependent line weights in our printing, i would like to get this colour problem sorted.

I'm having issues plotting using dwg to pdf. It prints perfect printing to my printer but when I create a pdf using dwg to pdf it does not print what is previewed.
I created block with solid hatches for my mark/schedule boxes and detail bubbles so I wouldn't have to trim whats behind it.

I have been working with a large scale architectural drawing provided by my cleint's architects. Since I usually work in black on a white screen, I have been working from paperspace with the viewport set to.monochrome. Up until Thursday, whenever I printed to PDF, I would get a monochome image which is what is supposed to happen.
However, In order to provide my client with a colour coded image, I changed some settings and printed a colour PDF. Now I cannot get it to go back to Monochrome. What setting has changed. I opened an earlier version of the same drawing and output a PDF from that drawing - black and white PDF. Try it from the current version of the drawing, it comes out in colour.
I have compared page setup settings, output setting, viewport 'MO' settings, they are all the same. How do I get back to black and white output.

If Inventor is on the screen when the pc locks (win+L) Inventor will not display properly after unocking the pc. Moving the mouse around will change what is highlighted in the feature tree and things like that, but I cannot at all see the actual object I am working on. Changing from one open component to another does not work. I have to restart each time this happens. I have updated both Inventor and my display drivers to a supported version.

I'm been unable to find what controls the display of the boundary of a section (volume type) object. A section object that does not show it's boundary, when copied to another file shows the boundary.
Same layer states, visual styles, and other setting between both files. There must be some setting I'm overlooking... but a search of the so-called help file was not very informative.

I have autocad running on my partitioned mac and I have just created a multileader style with Datum triangle filled as the arrowhead symbol. In the view panel the symbol looks correct, but when I select the multileader with this datum style and add it to my drawing it appears as an unfilled triangle!
