AutoCAD 2018 - Problems With Publish to PDf

I have a multi-tab drawing file getting a weird publishing issue.  I've contacted our cad company and they don't know what the issue is either.  I published the set with the settings i typically use.  When the pdf is finished it comes out showing the entire plan in the bottom right quadrant of the 24x36 space.  The sheet size is correct but the plan only takes up a 1/4th of the sheet.  Any clues?

 

I published this in 2016 with the same settings with no problem.

Hi @mschirmer,

 

Please try applying a Named Pagesetup to one of the layouts and then use the option "Plotter named in page setup".  You can then apply this pagesetup to all the drawings in your publish process.  Please let me know if this works. If not, please zip up a sample of your set so I can take a look at your plot style and the way your drawings are set up.

wow.  That worked.  I guess i thought i was doing that, but without setting a page setup and never had an issue before.  I will definitely get our template updated with this already in place.

 

Thank you.
