Plotting - Print to PDF

Anonymous

Hello - 

I am having issues when printing to PDF. I have been able to print my layouts fine all day but now that I'm trying to create a PDF it's not letting me. 

 

I don't get any errors when I go to plot. I get a box on the bottom right corner of the screen (near the little printer) and it says:

 

"Plot and Publish Job Complete

Errors and warnings found
Click to view plot and publish details..."

 

When I click on the hyperlink (click to view plot and publish details...) it brings up another box that says: 

  Job: - Canceled

Job ID: 6
Sheet set name:
Date and time started: 5/2/2019 2:48:43 PM
Date and time completed: 5/2/2019 2:48:43 PM
UserID: TimberInnovations
Profile ID: <<Unnamed Profile>>
Total sheets: 0
Sheets plotted: 0
Number of errors: 0
Number of warnings: 0

 

I am using a drawing file from an architect we are working with, I am separating out cabinets to create individual cabinet shops for our carpenters to make the cabinets. But they print just fine out of the printer, I am not able to make a PDF though.

 

How can I fix this?!

PLOT to your printer as you claim you can successfully do all day long, but just before you click OK to send it change the plotter to DWG TO PDF.PC3 driver: it works for most of us 100% of the time.

Try it.

Try print not publish... use DWG to PDF.pc3.  If that doesn't work feel free to post your file here and let us have a look.

Now I am unable to print on my printer as well. 

 

I tried changing the plotter to that one and it does not work. I basically tried plotting to all of the PDF options I have and none of them are working.

I tried using that one and it does the same thing. 

 

It makes it look like it went through just fine but the file doesn't show up in the folder I tell it to save to.

 

My file is super messy but here it is:

No problem plotting your layout to PDF here, you seem to not be following what we suggested

 

Capture.PNGCapture2.PNG

That is what I have been trying to do, I just restarted my computer and it worked. 

 

Thank you for your help!
