First of all, I wanna say that I'm a beginner in every autocad world. so please make it easy for me 🙂
I have my autocad 2012 for students since a year ago, it perform really well. there are no problem with it, but last day when I try to plot a drawing, suddenly my autocad freeze when the plot job progress window showed.
I then forced quit the application and try it again. and it happen again, the autocad freeze again (my cursor turn into loading-mode).
After that, I got frustrated and forced to quit the application again and begin to try to plot another file. Then I make a new drawing with a simple rectangle on it and try to plot it.
but still the same. the auto cad get freezed again.
I then frustrated again and uninstall my auto cad 2012 students and replace it with Autocad 2013. But the thing is still the same, I always got my autocad freeze when try to plot to PDF.
what should I do? I need help! please!
there's nothing wrong with my computer, because there's nothing wrong with the autocad since last day.
Note:
thank you and please help! 🙂
Hi,
Are you able to print to PDF from any other application on your Mac?
Which printer do you have on your system by default (at the moment when you try to save PDF from AutoCAD)?
Have you tried to "Reset printing system" (right click on printer name in "Print & Scan" pane of System preferences and select "Reset printing system..." from context menu - you have to setup printers again after this)?
Do you have the latest version of AC 2013 for Mac (at the command prompt type _VERNUM and hit Return, should be:
Command: _VERNUM
_VERNUM = "G.55.M.108" (read only)
