Objects are blacked out

[Anonymous]

How do I change revision tags to be clear and not blacked out.     Attatched file.

@Anonymous ,

Welcome to the AutoCAD forum.

Please provide AutoCAD About info and a drawing containing the tag.

It looks like you have wipeouts in your blocks. Some PDF plotters don't deal with these as expected. Eliminate the wipeouts or consider alternatives.

This is on CAD not PDF. I used to know the trick, but age has left me blank. I'm not sure haw to deal with wipeouts, but will research.

Sorry, I guess I didn't look close enough. The "trick" is in controlling your content. Dig into those symbols and determine what the objects are and their properties. If that doesn't give you enough to go on, share a small sample file and you will get something more than guesses.

This should show you what I am referring to....Watch it clear up with the file transfer! Look at the change numbers as they are blacked out. Got to be something simple. Didn't include the xrefs, but you can see what I'm talking about. Thanks.

Can't see a thing. Attachments in email responses don't get posted.

Have you tried exploring your content to figure out what you need to do?

I'm assuming enough basic CAD knowledge on your part to figure it out with a bit of guidance.

Figured it out....In Model view, highlight the object, right click and select Block Editor. In the Editor mode, you  highlight and delete the blackened area, close the Editor and click  Save the changes to DET. All of the objects are now clear and you are able to read the content.

You're welcome.
