I have a PDF that I have xref'd into acad to use as an underlay to trace over the top of. The problem is that I can not see anything on the PDF unless I tag the frame. When I unselect the pdf everything disappears again except the frame. The show underlay property is set to yes and PDFFRAMES is set to 1.
I had no issue in seeing your PDF. I did rough together the seal for you too. I hope this gets you started.

The only thing I can think of is that I was out of memory...I rebooted the machine a viola, suddenly it was working again. Sucks to be me, I guess. Thank you for your help!
I have had this problem a few times in AutoCAD MEP 2017 as well and so far the only fix I have found is to do a restart. Would love to know if there is a better more permanent solution.
This might be due to a limitation with your graphics card/driver. Is it current? If you would like assistance in finding the most current one, please tell me your OS and card model.

Sounds like you are just running out of system memory if a restart fixes the issue: but chance does it vanish after a few hours or a few minutes (like under 10)?
I apologize, I had just recently started a new thread on here and replied to this one as if it were my other. As for the PDF underlay it just randomly happens when I go to open an existing file. Also, system memory is good. If I run across this problem again I will attach the file.
You can either turn it off by typing GRAPHICSCONFIG into the command line and follow the prompts or there is an icon at the bottom right of the screen. 6 icons from the right. Looks like a circle with a check mark. Click that so it isn't blue and it will be off.
I had the same issue and I realized that i had just changed the name of my pathed base folders. Once I had renamed the folders back to their previous names thus restoring all the correct file paths for Civil3D, after a restart all was well. I suspect it was the plotter pathing.
