Dimensions distorted on exported PDF sheets when using break view.

Hello forum, first timer post here so bear with me.

 

I have this strange issue where the dimension numbers on some of my exported drawings get distorted/skewed when using horizontal break. It seems a bit as if the width of the number gets proportionally skewed according to where its located in relation to the element (when I move the dimension number closer to the center of element it gets distorted more and vice versa.).

 

I tried different fixes such as placing the dimension only on 2D / 3D elements, moving the dimension text around, exporting in raster / vector but nothing seems to help with the issue ....

 

It is quite troublesome as we need to show overall height/length of elements but currently the dimension becomes unreadable ....

 

Any ideas?

Yes, I tried it with Adobe PDF, Bluebeam PDF and Microsoft PDF as default printer but same result. To clarify I am using Revit 2022 Export to PDF feature.

It seems the issue is gone when using print as pdf.

 

However, I would still like to solve the issue with Export to PDF, since I have a large number of sheets and different sheets sets with naming that I need to export, for which Export to PDF works nicely.

Try DiRoots ProSheets (Revit add-in). It has heaps of functionality for naming and batch printing pdf's from Revit.
