File crashes when try to print

Hi,


Every time I try to access PRINT or attempt to Modify a layout in my Page Setup Manager, AutoCAD freezes and crashes. I am switching back and forth between AutoCAD on a PC at school (2013) and AutoCAD student version on my Mac at home (also 2013). Working in model space is fine, its only when I attempt to print or manage the print / layout settings.

 

I've already attempted the following:

- tried on multiple computers

- making a copy of the file

- copy & paste actual drawing into new dwg file

- accessing .bak file by renaming to .dwg and opening

- purge

- overkill 

 

I'd be very grateful for any assistance anyone might be able to offer!  I've attached the file below. Not sure if this is because I'm switching back and forth from Mac & PC? I do the same for all my other files, but this is the only one thats giving me a hard time.

 

Thanks,

Adena

Hi Adena,

 

No crashes on my system, see attached PDF, created from Print dialog (PDF->Save as PDF)

Maxim -

As always, a huge thanks for your help!

I just figured out realized it was crashing because my CTB file was
corrupt. Thats why you probably didnt have any issues opening while I
did... I applied a different CTB and it worked just fine.

Again - many thanks!

Best,
Adena

Hello - I am having a lot of difficulty printing.  I am using a new computer for the first time that has AutoCad already installed on it.  It is AutoCad 2011, my computer is a Mac desktop OSX 10.7.5

 

I have read through other forums and can not find an answer to this problem.  I can not print to our printer nor can I print to a PDF.  The program will shut down completely and I receive a message that an error occured and if I want to submit a report.  After this I have to go through a process through the terminal program just to be able to open the program again.

 

Please someone help me, this is quite frustrating.

 

Thank you

Hi,

Did you have all Service packs (Updates) for AotoCAD 2011 for Mac installed on your Mac? Without these updates AutoCAD 2011 will not run properly on 10.7.5.
