Hi @marco.defina,

 

Can you attach some files to a post? i would like to see if the conversion fails on my side as well.

 

Please also give me the version numbers of both Revit and the AutoCAD you are using.

Hi @marco.defina,

 

I didn't have any issues with importing the PCP. I imported it by Options?Plot and Publish>Add or Configure Plotters which started the Add-a-Plotter Wizard.

 

I attached my resulting PC3 file for you.

 

Perhaps the issue is actually in the drawing. You are welcome to attach it here or send to me personally at john.vellek@autodesk.com.

Hi,

 

>> but i tried to create a ctb from pcp, not a pc3...

PCP and PC3 are plotter device configurations. (PCP can be converted to PC3 as both are plotter device configs)

CTB is a color conversion config.

You can't convert a plotter config to a color conversion table.

So the problem is that i did not understand the i cannot create a ctb from a pcp but only the pc3...

 

The window where you can create a ctb from pcp or pcp2 confused me...

 

 

Thanks...

Hi everyone

 

I have a problem with .pcp too...

I need to create a .ctb file, and what I saw is: .pcp is different from .ctb, ok... But what could I do to export a DWG file and plot a PDF with same colors and lineweight from Revit's PDF?

 

.pcp can do that? 

Or there is an other way to get this result ?

 

Thank you!
