DWF output is not as good as a PDF

I like the features of the DWF, but the PDF file matches what comes out of
our printer straight from AutoCAD. The DWF prints lines lighter.
I have seen this discussion before, and I can tell you it happens.
I would drop my PDF writer now if the output would be closer to the printed
page.

Awaiting the wraith

Scott,

Can you post the file or send me an example that I can look at?

Under Custom Properties for the PC3 file you use, did you up the DPI output
setting?

Same as PDF
No reason to make it any higher.

Scott,

I didn't get the files and your direct email address keeps bouncing on me.
So can you either resend the files directly to me or post a zip at:

news://discussion.autodesk.com/autodesk.autocad.customer-files

Thanks,
Tony

Sorry, I have a "NOSPAM" on my Hotmail address I use for this newsgoup. I
emailed you the file from my SWBELL.NET account.
