Problem with Creating PDF from Revit

[HJiang85U97]

I encountered a problem with PDF creation from Revit sheet. Some details lines show a thinner green line on top of actual line. ​The Revit is 2021. PDF driver is Bluebeam. I've tried with CutePDF writer but the result is the same.

Try this setting when print to Bluebeam PDF.

Never thought of that...

Much better but still a few green lines...

Same spot as in my original post:

Of course it only eliminates the green line where there is a black line in the same place.  If there is a gap then the green line still shows through.

Here is a side by side for your comparison:

Thanks. Do you know how these green lines generated? I checked that there are no duplicate lines in the view.

Wait, are you saying the green lines don't exist in Revit but PDF?  If so, I would need to see the Revit file.

Thanks again. Unfortunately it's a confidential project and I can't upload anything from it to the forum.

Fair enough.

What is that element with the black square grid lines?

[HJiang85U97]

Those are just detail lines in a section view representing structural reinforcement.  We don't include reinforcement in the 3D model.

The screenshot below is from the view in Revit. The shading is the wall I highlighted.

What are the View's Discipline and Show Hidden Lines?

[HJiang85U97]

It's architectural and shows all hidden lines. I stepped into this project from nowhere. Previous modeler left the company last year. It's a stop-n-go painful bilingual project.

Change Show Hidden Lines to By Discipline, reprint and see what gets you.

You're genius! Thanks a lot.
