Exporting a camera view results in a blank sheet

[mlokun]

Hi, I'm a student in architecture and I'm relatively new to Revit. I recently tried exporting a 3D camera view from my model after pasting it onto a sheet, but it shows up completely blank other than the crop region and text. When I've done this with a regular 3D view, floor plans, or any other type of drawing, it exports fine. My hardware acceleration is toggled on, and I've installed the latest updates to see if this would resolve it but it hasn't. I'm not sure what I should do.

Export? To where? Walk us through what do did exactly.

Hi, apologies. I went to file, and then print. I needed this to be exported as an Adobe PDF so that I could edit it in Illustrator. In the print options, I changed the print range to the selected sheet. This is what I did for my other drawings which exported just fine.

try to untick the crop view > zoom to fit > try again to print and see if helps. thanks

Hi, thanks for the suggestion but unfortunately that did not help. It only made the text larger, but the drawing is still not there. I have no problem with the drawing exporting small, it just isn't exporting at all.

try to install another printer driver like BULLZIP and see if helps. thanks

Try using "Current window".

Also in Settings>Setup, check page size, orientation, etc. Maybe use "Fit to Page".

Check Print Preview. Is the image there?

Can you upload the sample file for us to analyze?

Hello, I tried tweaking my settings to your suggestions to see if it would work, but unfortunately the drawing still doesn't appear. This is what I got:

This was after I chose to fit it to the page, the drawing did not show up, and below is a screenshot of my printer settings.

Below, I tried to zoom the drawing in by 50% and it just made the text bigger but no drawing.

Also, I thought I would share what results I get from exporting my regular 3D view to see if that would help since this is the result I need to get with the 3D camera views. This first image is what my 3D view looks like on the sheet;

And this second image is the resulting export preview. I know the drawing is cut off but I'm showing it because it appears just fine when I export it unlike my camera view - it's really weird.

Thank you for your suggestion.

I just wanted to give an update on my issue because I finally got it figured out.

Basically, I learned that Revit exports this view blank because it cannot read a type of object, line, or massing. In my case it was my topography and I had to deselect it when exporting, and I was able to get my view. Thank you to everyone who helped, and I hope this helps anyone else with this issue.
