Hello everyone
I have big problems exporting pdf from autocad 2024. The quality of the export is very poor and my hatchings and curves are very pixelated.
I followed several steps (4800 dpi, high quality, lines merges, ...) but nothing to do.
I have this problem on several files and it's the same for the people I send them to, or when I print.
I hope one of you has an answer.
Thanks in advance
What if you use the Plot command and then for Printer/Plotter select DWG To PDF.pc3 to create your PDF?
@raphael.taiebTDAJY You have SHADEMODE set to something other than 2D, set to do a swiggle-line, and that's why your results look like that
I use DWG TO PDF.pc3 with a custom CTB and correct scaling of my drawings.
change shade plot to: As Displayed
and make sure VSCurrent is set to 2dwireframe

Share your DWG file here if the tips above do not fix it for you.
Thanks for your help, but I still can't do it. I'll share the file with you.
The quality is down to 600 dpi (which is normally sufficient) for inconclusive tests.
Are you plotting from modelspace
Or paperspace (and a very custom very small postcard page size and a very small viewport plot scale that is going to look horribly wiggly when you zoom in very close)
I draw graphics from the model-space and export to a custom paperspace 130x250mm (maybe that's where the problem comes from).

yes, it appears you may have a lot of scaling issues in this DWG file (a 1,52mm wide staircase in modelspace?), and trying to prints such a large model on a half-letter page is never going to give you a crisp line in PDF, it does not work like that
Looks like this DWG file is supposed to be in meters but it is not, its in mm. A separate issue that's not going to change the plot to a half-page reality sadly.
Thanks a lot for your help, I don't understand why the file is in mm but ok.
I have several files with this same problem, do you have an idea so that it doesn't happen to me in the future?
