Line wights Issue during Plotting

[Baqari]

Hello there

 Is there a some way to disable line weights at all? I have set my line weights to the minimum, which is 0.025mm, but lines are still very thick when I export it in PDF. My drawings have a lot of tiny details and I am losing that LOD (level of detail) in PDF format because I can not print or export without line weights. If there is some way to disable line wights at least during export or printing, like AutoCAD, please let me know.

Thanks in advance

Can you show the image?

[Baqari]

 it does not really matter because this issue exists in Revit for a long time. But still, below is the screenshot as it looks lie in PDF (Screenshot 01) and as it should be looking (screenshot 02). As you can see there there is a lot of detail lost in the first screenshot, plus it looks bad and very unnatural.

Is this just an overall floor plan? If yes, the first image is more how I'd expect a floor plan to look than the second one.

Try thin lines tl command in revit and thn export to pdf

[Baqari]

That function does not work while exporting, it only works for viewports.

This might help

you can use the Object Style for change the normal line weight to 1, you can select all and change all of them in same time

you can make one View Template and set the all lines Weight to 1 and for make the PDF use the your ViewTemplate

Thanks for the feedback, but that does not solve my problem. I've already set everything on 1 in object styles, also from line weights option I have put all line weights to the minimum of 0.025mm thickness, but still no good. It is still way too thick. I just want to completely disable line weights during plotting or exporting. If you are familiar with AutoCAD, during plotting it has an option to disable line wights and just plot with thin lines. I searching that kind of option in Revit too.

Thanks for the feedback. I know Adobe Acrobat has this option (probably other PDF applications have this feature too) to turn off the line weights, but it is still on during plotting and when you print the drawing on paper it looks terrible.

Yes , i know the autocad but in revit we can not the line weight set to 0, all the line must be have the weight .I think the 0,025mm thickness is smalest line thickness in printer like the 0,00 in autocad.
Success!

I have completely the opposite problem to this.   My Revit (and only mine) will not print line weights at all no matter how thick they are in override or their actual weights.  It doesn't matter what pdf creator I use and its only me, everyone else can print fine.

You're doing it right, as it should be.
The problem is the Revit limit when printing (0.083mm/0.003") .

This limit means that even if you set all the lines to 0.025, they will be printed at 0.08mm... almost 4 times thicker!!

You can vote here to see if they remove it once and for all

I would suggest checking your line weight chart, different files sometimes have different values

halftone the whole view through overriding it. and then when plotting from printing setup, check (replace halftone with thin lines.)
