Printing colors that match view

OK, so I'm fairly new to printing out of Revit. I usually exported views and such to Autocad, tweaked them to my desires, and print.

I'm trying to skip that and print directly out of Revit and let me say: Printing out of Revit is retarded! It is so stupid I can't believe it.

 

Not only do I have to to go through multiple sub-menus to get it to look how I want it to on-screen, but I have to go through even more sub-menus to get it to print the way I want it to. And WHY do I have to have to set overrides on a per-view (north elevation, south elevation, section, etc) basis? Is there a way to set one view the way I want and then propogate it to the others?

 

My personal opinion is that Revit needs to revamp that whole system since I have to publish a PDF to get it to print correctly. And why isn't PDF an option to print/export to? Why do I need to load a third party engine?

Although I agree that it is very lame Revit still has no build-in option to print to PDF, I think you are posting on the wrong forum.
