print to pdf changes colors

EagleCC — Fri, 25 Feb 2022 20:17:44 GMT

I have 2 designs

On the first one I managed to set white color to the Layer 49 Reference

The the top layer to a green color

When I print to PDF, the green becomes a light grey and the white black. (So my text is black)

However, on the second drawing with the exact same parameters on layer colors (I actually exported the ULP from 1st file to second one and ran SCR) but then when I sent to print pdf, the green becomes light gray BUT the white color becomes a light shade of gray so I cant see the text

Thanks for the help!

Jorge,

Thank you for taking the time to answer my post

I actually took the "good file" and ran the ULP to extract the palette

Then I took the "bad" file and run the SCR of the palette from file1

However, this didn't work

In short: I need the white color in Eagle to be sent to pdf as black
