Hi there
Today I decided to migrate all the files of one of my projects, and I realised that Task Scheduler would also save all my files and create PDFs of the .DWGs. I guess it saved PDFs of my DWGs because I have a rule making it do so after save.
I was happy.. that is, until I realised that it did a horrible job at creating the PDF files with missing lines and everything!
The odd thing, now, is that while the Task Scheduler did a horrible job, I can now open a drawing, just save it, and I have a perfect PDF file. It's the same Ilogic rule and everything!
If necessary you can find my PC specs in the bottom of the message, and I'll also paste my PDF rule and a few examples of Task Scheduler vs. opening and saving them manually.
If anyone has a fix for it, it'd be most appreciated! ๐

Unfortunately due to company policy I cannot give you the full documents. I hope what I have provided is enough!
