Problem printing PDF

[Anonymous]

Hi!

I have the following problem while printing a file as pdf from AutoCAD. So in AutoCAD everything looks fine also in the print preview everything is ok. The problem arises when i try to print the file as Pdf. In this case stuff is missing. 

Please take a look at the photos below!

Hi,

When you select a different printer, does the same happen?

If yes ... can you please

• upload the dwg-file
• start command _ABOUT so we can see the product and version you are using

Which AutoCAD version?
Which PDF driver are you plotting to? what sheet size? and if yous elect a much smaller sheet size as a test, do these same items also disappear?

I have Autocad 2018. I don't know what you mean with Pdf Driver. The sheet size is 2040 x 594 mm. Just tried to print the file into a smaller sheet size but still the same items disappear.

Hi,

>> I have Autocad 2018.

This does not show the exact version, please start command _ABOUT and show us a screenshot from this dialog.

>> I don't know what you mean with Pdf Driver

When you start the plot-dialog .. which device have you selected?

It looks like I resolved the problem. I just created a completely new sheet and it looks like it works. 

Anyway thank you for the quick answers.

FYI you are missing required updates for 2018, you should be at version 2018.1.2 by now, not just 2018. You can get it from the updates link at your Accounts Page here https://manage.autodesk.com/

Hi,

additionally to the missing updates ... if using "DWG to PDF.pc3" does show the same effect again then please try "AutoCAD PDF (General Documentation).pc3"
