PDF's without layers

I'd love to have the option to save a "flattened" [no layers] PDF. Is there a way?

If you have Acrobat, or some other pdf printing program, you can print to pdf, then there will be no layers.

Thanks! I'd never used Acrobat but I have access through Creative Cloud so problem solved!

 

For anyone curious, I noticed you can also open your existing PDFs in Acrobat and utilize a "Flatten Layers" option.

I need to Print a PDF without layers everytime that I save an .ipt file. I see a lot of iLogic code for saving a Print but I have not seen any regarding printing a pdf without layers. Can someone point me in the right direction?

There is a IdeaStation post here.  Please support it if you need/want the ability to control the PDF layers.

 

Thanks
