Revit :: Plotting To PDF The Last Sheet Will Not Print?
Apr 4, 2013We have experienced this problem with multiple versions of Revit. When we plot to PDF (bluebeam driver), it will sometimes not create the final sheet that was checked in the list of sheets to print in the print dialog box.

Nov 8, 2012When I plot to paper from TV2012, I'm good with monochrome - black lines, white background - awesome.
I would *like*, however, to plot a few things to PDF, but retain the view I have on my display - I.E., lines/labels of various colors and a BLACK background. I've been poking around for a bit, and if there's a way to make that setting, I'm no finding it. Everything I try has gotten me colored lines/labels on a white background.

Jan 10, 2014When I try to plot the file from the layout the middle and right part of my xref'ed image comes out as a black box - the top, bottom and left edge are fine. As are the line-drawings from two other xref on top of the image. The problem accourse both when I try to a physical copy on our plotter and when I try to plot to a pdf.

Revit :: Print Part Of A View To Scale For Collaboration?
Jan 31, 2013Is it possible to print a view or part of a view to scale for collaboration without first putting the view on a sheet? Thinking about preliminaries, when working with students. Its easy, in autocad, to print anything to scale regardless of whether views are on sheets. Is there a similar capability in Revit? All I can find is zoom scale.
View 2 Replies View RelatedRevit :: How To Print Odd View On Sheet With Coloured Lines
Oct 14, 2013In our company we currently model using coloured lines rather than the Revit desired black/white but we are more and more being asked to print the odd view on a sheet with coloured lines or a coloured 3d view.
As some of us have grown up on th edrawing board through to Revit we are so used to the coloured lines and feel that it gives the drawing depth and is so much easier to understand.
I have been trying every way to keep the coloured linies but using view templates. filters and phasing to enable me to change views quickly from coloured to black and then back but there is no easy quick transition especially as we can't use these to change standard linetypes.
Why Autodesk have made this such a difficult issue within revit... Now we can model in 3D, create schedules automatic yet Autocad is much better for plotting...
Revit :: Small White Area Appears In Background In Rendered View

I attached a rendered view ( draft quality) and a realistic view . you can see the white area in the background in both images.
Illustrator :: Transparent PSD Image / Changes Color Of Vector Background After Print
Jan 11, 2013URL....I have a green vector background in illustrator and then I placed psd image over it and created PDF for press and under Color bitmap images I selected no compression.After viewing image in Acrobat all seems ok, I even checked with picker, but after I send this to printer (xerox in thsi case) I end up with this: Both .psd and .ai are in CMYK color space. For this particular case I could use mask to cover up that transparent space but my original project has shadows which I cannot mask by vector :S.
how to set color profiles or whatever is neccessary to avoid this issue. One thing I was using was, opening PDF in Photoshop and flatening all. Problem is that sometimes I need vector files and cut lines for cutter. Don't want to have bitmap, if I can have a vector? Also when I flaten image I do get same CMYK values in photoshop (with picker) than I have in Illustrator on vector object, but when I print this they don't match at all.
Revit :: Display Underlay Over Background Raster Image?

Sep 27, 2011Ive got a A3 drawing all set up to plot to my printer and it works fine.
Unfortunately the same cannot be said when I use the _exportpdf command (or the PDF function in the ribbon):-
- If I export using the current layout then the top and bottom of my title block are chopped off.
- If I change the paper size to A3fullbleed then it does plot the whole drawing, but not to scale (even though its still set to 1:1
- Changing to the other A3 options goes back to chopping off the top and bottom.
From my limited knowledge It appears that the columns need adjusting, trouble is, i'm not sure how?
AutoCAD Print / Plot :: Plotting DWG To PDF And Saving
Jun 1, 2012Is there a way to set the Dwg to Pdf.pc3 so that when I hit plot, it "knows" to save the pdf in the bloody folder that the source .dwg file is located....I can see how to set it to 1 single default folder in Options ( i.e. my main Clients folder) but really, how to get to to plot to the source folder..... has got to be less than 1/2 hours worth of coding....I get pretty tired of browsing/scrolling etc to where I want the pdf to end up.

AutoCAD Print / Plot :: Plotting From Window
May 7, 2012am using ACAD2008 on windows XP.

View 2 Replies View RelatedAutoCAD Print / Plot :: Plotting Several Sheets At Once
Sep 21, 2011We use several different printers at our company, and one thing that I find really bugging is that I have to change the plot settings on each sheet, if the file has been worked on by someone else.
Is it possible (for example) if I've got 7 sheets set up, they all have an A3 drawing set up (correct extents, pen settings etc), for me to highlight all of the tabs and just change the printer? Rather than going into each sheet and manually changing them?
AutoCAD Print / Plot :: Plotting Larger Than A4
Apr 30, 2013We've got an HP Designjet 455C attached to an SBS 2003 computer.
From Autocad, I can print when I set the page size to A4 - as expect, it prints a nice A4 sized plot on the A1 width roll. But if I try to print full size plots, nothing happens; the document spools, but the printer does nothing.
It must be something to do with paper size or orientation, but I can't find what. I wondered if there was anything well known I should try (I'm not that familiar with Autocad - yet).
Part of the problem was inconsistency.. sometimes test documents would print, and then they wouldn't! I also got one which seemed to print at the right size, but was only printing part of the file content. These are existing Autocad files, with a printer that has been working in the past.

View 4 Replies View RelatedAutoCAD Inventor :: DWG Not Plotting Shade View From It?
Mar 25, 2013What it boils down to is that I'm the only inventor seat and need to use dwg for layouts in my work environment so that others can edit notes and print if needed. We also always plot to pdf and then print hardcopies as necessary.
Many of our drawings require ISO/axon/perspective views of models, and almost always shaded views. I can plot from inventor without issue, but when I plot from autocad, the shaded views plot only partially shaded with the rest wireframe or completely wireframe. I attached a pdf example. The view on the left should appear shaded the same as the views to the right.
I've adjusted every print setting I can think of, set shaded views to offline only for using bitmap, and tried low, mid and higher resolutions for the bitmap dpi setting.
We have product design suite 2013 and I'm on a windows 7 x64 machine.
AutoCad 2D :: Plotting / View Port Scale?

The only scale I can get the drawing to plot at is "fit to page", which is no scale. I have tried to set the scale on the "page setup" and the same thing happens.

View 4 Replies View RelatedRevit :: Plan View Tags Referencing Wrong Dependent View?
Jan 10, 2012We have our first project in Revit that we are having to split among multiple sheets because of the size of the building, so I have made 3 dependent views from the main overall view, named them, cropped them and placed each part (A,B, and C) on separate sheets. Now that I am trying to do enlarged toilet plan views, I want to tag the plans with the plan callouts on the 1/8” sheets that are the dependent views, but all the view tags are referencing dependent view A since it is the first dependent view in the list. If I change sheet A to be named Sheet X for instance, all the view tags now reference sheet B since that becomes the first dependent view alphabetically. I want them to reference the sheet they appear in, but I can’t seem to figure out how to do that, even though they are in different dependent views completely and within the crop region, they all default to the first dependent view in alphabetical order.
View 4 Replies View RelatedAutoCAD Print / Plot :: DWF - Lines Plotting Too Heavy?
Jun 18, 2007I am finding that my DWF files sent to the plotter are plotting with the linework being heavier than the same file sent directly to our plotter. These are just lines that should plot with a narrow width (ie walls on a floor plan) but they seem to be about twice the width and hence look "darker". Is there a setting that I am missing or some other way to get the lines to plot out thinner? Also, TTF fonts plot thicker in DWF. I've tried the various options in the DWF viewer when sending to the plotter, but none seem to work.

Also I not sure if this makes a difference, but the company plots from model space and where most of our customers use paper space.
AutoCAD Print / Plot :: Contact Sheet Like Plotting
Oct 3, 2011Years ago, there was a program of routine that would plot files to a sheet resembling a photographer’s contact sheet. You would tell it which folder to use and it would print the entire folder. You could tell it how many rows and columns and it would fill up the 8.5 x 11 or 11 x 17 sheet with little images of the files.

Jun 9, 2013I am trying to plot a layout sheet 24'' W x 18" H. The frame on my sheet is 22''W x 16''L (inside the dash lines limits we see on the layout). I believe I prepare the print correctly:
- Select the printer (HP DESIGN JET PS)
- I use the window fonction to select the printable area ( left upper corner and then the opposite corner).
- Select Paper size Arch C (landscape)
- Paper orientation: Lansdcape
The preview shows that the upper and bottom lines of my frame will not print, and they do not, even if I try (see the attachement below).
Is this a driver problem?
AutoCAD Print / Plot :: LT2011 Crashes When Plotting?
Jan 3, 2012I have a Dell 515 plotter printer connected to a network computer. I can print to it from other programs, but as of this evening, when I select the printer, the screen goes white and autocad dies. I can print to a pdf or even select another printer that is not even turned on. This also happens when the 515 is set as the default and I select print to default system printer.
this has happened before and It seemed like a lucky fluke that i got it to stop. something about the order of change scale, preview, change plotter etc, but no luck this time.

Aug 27, 2013I have a bunch of pdf underlays in model space with four viewports referencing them in one paperspace layout. The viewports are on their own non-plot layer and the pdf underlays are on a plottable layer. This isn't an issue on the original dwg that I copied them from.
-Everything appears fine in paperspace (see FIG. 1)
-When I go to plot, only the viewport on the right shows up. (see FIG. 2)
-If I move the viewports on the left to the right side, they plot.(see FIG 3)
-When I move the original right viewport to the left side it no longer plots. (NOT SHOWN)
-If I toggle each viewport in the original layout and draw a random line in model space all four of them plot(see FIG. 4)
-I've checked the vp and pdf underlay layers and properties-all are good
-I've tried creating new vp's and still have same issues
-tried creating a new dwg, copied in the pdf underlays and still have same issue
AutoCAD Print / Plot :: Plotting To PDF (fuzzy Plots)
Mar 21, 2012I've been working on some wiring schematics lately and I noticed that when I plot to PDF (using both Adobe and the ACAD PDF plotter) my plots are coming out fuzzy. It looks like I have a shadow around my text and lines. In the attached graphic, the plot on the left was drawn about a year ago, the one on the right was done within the last two months. I recently went in and changed the PDF plot setting to High quality print. Ultimately,I didn't have this issue last year and as far as I can remember, I haven't made any changes to my plot settings.
