Bug in AutoCAD Plant 3D 2022 to print items with end connection on P&IDs using PDF format through the Batch Plot tool

Hello everybody.

 

The bug is presenting when I try to print my P&IDs collection through batch plot tool in PDF from my AutoCAD Plant 3D 2022. I have some items that are configured with end connection option. I hope that some one knows a solution, because I don't want to waste the batch plot options, due to saving time.

 

I show you the element in the next image, which is a house.

When I print my P&ID in a normal way, the PDF is perfect, I show you in the next image the result.

But the issue is when I use the batch plot tool because the end connection of my item disappears. I show you the result after using the batch plot tool in the next image.

I use the same configuration to print in the normal way and the batch plot, because I use a printer file, a plot style table, and a page setup file. The next image shows my Page Setup configuration.

I show you the Publish configuration in the Batch Plot tool.

I am using AutoCAD Plant 3D 2022 with the last patch and hotfixes.

Sometimes you can get better results if you uncheck "Publish in background" but publishing can be prone to errors and has issues.

Thanks for taking the time to answer.


I tested the Batch Plot tool by unchecking the "Publish in background" option, but the result in PDF file is the same, the end connectors are not shown.
