Printing to PDF

I am having difficulty printing my QTO to PDF using any form of virtual PDF printer (CutePDF or AdobePDF) printers do not work correctly.

 

After performing the take off, I am looking to print certain worksheets to PDF however this operation takes a VERY long time, and the PDF only generates 1 out of 10 times. Even on the 1 PDF which is created the takeoff layers are 100% opaque and black out the information on the plan, and the legend does not seem to show correctly. I have the colour icons, but no quantity information.

 

I am trying to print to PDF on Arch C,D, or E size paper (Native for the drawing PDF I have been working on).

 

Another issue is the file size, when QTO does create a PDF it is a MASSIVE file (16+mb)

 

Any ideas or suggestions on ways of printing certain worksheets to PDF?

 

Thanks in Advance.

You dont need to print to PDF because the image quality is so poor. Therefore I suggest you to export to DWF file and use DWF software to print that file. It is so effective.
