dwg to pdf

I’m getting inconsistent results printing using dwg to pdf.  Same hatch patter, color… but pattern shows different on the same drawing, see attached.  I know there is a workaround for this but can not find it.  Any suggestions?

What process are you using to create the PDF?

 

are you using EXPORTPDF or are you using a PDF printer and if so which one?

can you post the drawing?  although they may be the same pattern and color, are there any object overrides applied?

not sure I could just post them due to the size.  3 xrefs plus the dwg, about 10 mb

you could zip them and try here, or upload them to A360 and share a link:

 

Here is some information on sharing a file via A360:

If you are sharing a drawing, please add it to a zip file first, as it reduces the need for A360 to process the file and makes the file quicker to access.

Hi @654work,

 

It is hard to tell from your attached image if the drawing is 2D or not.  I would like to see a sample drawing (it doesn't have to be the whole thing as long as it retains the issue at hand).

 

Please also attach your plot style CTB file.

The issue appears to be resolved.  I used hatchtoback and this fixed the problem.  Below is a link to the discussion with the solution.
