revit crashes when exporting to pdf

Hi,

 

I have problem with revit when exporting to pdf. I was trying to find what causes the problem:

1. I have created a few projects (20-100mb large), and prepared plans, sections and 3d views on sheets for the export.

2. When I use "export to pdf" (either icon or choose from dropdown menu) it crashes and freezes computer. Only option is to reset computer. Sometimes when crashing it displays psychodelic colors (looks like graphic card crash).

3. When I use a PDF printers - it works fine.

4. I formatted and reinstalled whole windows, programs and did all of updates for windows and revit itself. still crashes.

5. I copied files from server to my local drive (c). still crashes.

6. I opened same files on four other computers - it works smoothly, and takes about 30sec to export all the sheets.

7. When I delete sheets that need raster rendering it works fine.

 

I guess it might be a problem between my computer specs and revit.

Computer specs: Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-2687W v2 @ 3.40GHz (processors: 2), 64gb ram, nvidia quadro K6000

 

Is there a way how to solve it?

Hey,

 

Thanks for the reply, unfortunately it doesn't help.

1. I do not have any spot elevations

2. The same files work perfectly smooth on other computers.

 

I still think that the issue is my computer hardware set up.
