Thick lines after exporting to PDF

I have to print my drawing for my school project, but after I exported it I noticed that some very thick lines we're created where the thread supposed to be. Is there a possibility to remove them? Thank you

Try using the High-Quality setting within the Export to PDF within the Options. The "Standard" settings seems to create problems.

Just insert the picture rather than attaching it as a file

Do you mean the Vector Resolution setting? Cause I didn't found any other quality option. I tried to export it with maximum (4800) of DPI's, but it's the same.

Export to ACad preserving line weights and then use ACad to Export to PDF?

When the "save as" dialog box comes up when you export to pdf hit the options button next to the save button and check "remove object line weights"

 

You can also edit the line weights in your style library. Or change thread lines (style manager object defaults) to hidden narrow if its not already,etc...

It's not a problem with the lines being too thick, it's a problem of double lines. Do you have thread features turned on in the section view settings? They should always be off in sections to comply with generally accepted drafting standards.
