Light lines

Hello,

So I'm trying to save a dwg file to a pdf but sometime not all the lines show. Some lines and text show but not all of it does anyone.

this an example. Some of the lines are dim and some are dark enough to see.

Hi,

does this happens always and in every CAD dwg or just here ?

we need your CAD dwg and your ctb files for testing ?

If you zoom in, do those light lines suddenly appear just fine?
Or in your DWG file are those lines set to a NOPLOT layer or you are using RGB white color 255,255,255 (which do not print)?

I think when i zoom in the line appear a bit better.

And I check I have the all on a standard 0 layer and all colors are by layer. So idk what it is?

This seems like all my cad files every time I try to save it as a pdf. For reason when I zoom in the lines are fine but far back it looks like some lines fade. I send you one sheet for reason.
