Fraction is Crowding Whole Number on Dimension Line in .pdf

Anonymous — Sat, 15 Jul 2017 03:19:20 GMT

Using Autocad for Mac 2016.

When I look at my drawing in .pdf format, I notice there is no space between fraction and the whole number on my dimension lines. In some cases, the fraction covers ones place digit if it's a multi-digit whole number. It's almost as if there's only a certain amount of room for the dimension to fit. If it can't fit, it gets squished.

The numbers appear just fine in both model space and paper space.

Please see attached .pdf.

Hi Michael,

Here:

you can find the discussion about similar problem.
Looks like there is a bug in AutoCAD for Mac which gives such results with fractions.
There are two workarounds:
- use Batch Publish instead of Print or Preview from print window
- set system variable USEQUARTZFONT=0
