Trouble exporting a PDF on autocad 360 app

[tonydommer]

I have tried a few different setting to get a PDF emailed to myself

Every time I am getting a blank pdf missing layers or just a single square on the pdf

what am i doing wrong?

I am working with a ipad pro

Post a screenshot of (or list) all your export2pdf options, let's double-check: I can't replicate any issues here in iOS sent as an email to me.

[tonydommer]

Here are the option I have.  I am not sure what they refer to.

I select Export

then plot

"Export to PDF"

-plot style   

  - Grayscale.ctb

  - None

-Layout

  - Model

  - Layout 1

  - Layout 2

-Papersize

  - I have been selecting ISO A4

- Orientation

- Landscape

- Fit to Paper  selected yes

- Scale 1:1

- 1mm = 1 unit

Scale and the 1mm are not selectable with fit to paper selected

Paper Six

[pendean]

Q1: are you plotting from Model or one of the layouts? You typed all three.
Q2: what is the "plot area" chosen? It's between paper size and orientation. Try Extents.

[tonydommer]

plot style none

layout model

paper size  ISO A4

plot area extents

landscape oreintation

fit to paper

still no layers and the image is just a box not the floorplan I trying to send?

[pendean]

Those settings work for me: change plot area from EXTENTS to DISPLAY: does that help?

[tonydommer]

It didn't help.  i got even less to come through?

[tonydommer]

Does it matter that i am storing this in a dropbox acct?

[tonydommer]

I can send the Sample Dog House plans to myself with no issue

[pendean]

I don't access my files from DropBox: worth trying it from the autocad360 folders instead.

If you want to post your DWG file here you can too.

[tonydommer · Accepted solution]

i moved my file from Dropbox to a folder on the a360 acct i think.  but once i moved it i was able to forward it.

the resolution wasn't as good as i expected, any thoughts as to why it might not be that great when i zoom in?

[pendean]

No idea, I'm not seeing that issue here.

We are having he same issue with students printing or plotting on the Ipad.   It will cut off dimension lines and some times even part of the project.   We are drawing I have tried almost every different combo when trying to print to get this not to happen.   If you choose different option it plots the project really small.

Hi, same problem here. Did you find a way to fix this issue?

[tonydommer]

I did so I know there is a solution. I don’t remember exactly how but I will work with it a little tonight and see what happens

How would I make one layer bolder than the other when printing.  I am working on the most recent version of a mac in AUTOCAD 2020
