Revit not pdf printing vector lines

[ellie7XSRV]

In the past when I have pdf'd a floor plan it will print all lines as vectors (so when you open it in adobe illustrator for example you can select each line).  Now all of a sudden it is printing things in a box and I can not select individual lines.  I do not think this is an adobe issue (I opened an old plan that I know works and it was fine). I tried saving the model on a local drive (not connected to my work VPN), having a coworker pdf it, updating adobe software, restarting revit, restarting my computer, I clicked the remove lines using vector processing, remove lines using raster processing, printing just the view, printing on a sheet.  Nothing seemed to work.

Plan views?  One or more of the reasons below:

- shaded or realistic views

- shadows

- silhouettes

- sketchy lines

- not turning off Navisworks coordination models

That was it, we just figured it out.  Ambient shadows were on.
