Hi everyone!
Since yesterday, I don't know why, my AutoCAD (2017) started creating PDFs that are extremely large; whereas a single file would normally be around 1MB or so, now its's around 8MB or 10MB. It happens on layouts that have more information than others, such as more things that are unfrozen or more hatches, especially, it seems to me, dotted hatches. I've always used to DWG to PDF, I've never changed anything on the PDF options. I don't know what's going on, and I really, really!, need this to work. I've tried using other forms, such as AutoCAD PDF, or the export command, and they work just fine. It's just DWG to PDF, in both Plot and Publish.
What I think that may have happend is that I accidentally pressed the wrong keys and prompted a command and somehow changed a variable or something... I really have no idea....
Thanks in advance!

Hi @Anonymous,
I suggest that you try to include the Hyperlinks in the PDF options and then plot to PDF again. I believe that should fix the output size for you.

Thanks for the solution. This has been a problem for me for about a year now.
