Have been trying printing pdf's from AutoCAD 2022 both via single print or batch print, but layers like survey etc. that is either frozen or turned off in drawing file, both in model and drawing view, is printing anyway. Also printing directly from autocad same issue. Thanks

Hi,

I suggest to check if your version is full updated?

So you don't see the info on your screen (because layers are turned off or frozen), but they are printed?

What do you see if you check the print preview?

Frozen layer should always work. Layers turned off is a bit different. (lines etc in a block on a certain layer, and the block itself on a certain layer. Which layer is turned-off).

Hi

Print preview also shown lines visible, even though turned off.
Information is mostly from reference files layers, either turned off if paper space,
Or model space, or sometimes directly in reference files.
Only method for not printing appears to be turning printing of layers off.
Though this option was not used or required prior to say last month?
Currently turning layer off + freezing layer, is not enough to not printing.

Kind Regards
