Revit not printing to PDF

Morning

 

I feel like I lost 30 years and am waiting for a plot on a pen plotter, only worse because nothing is happening now even on a single sheet or view. I let Revit try and do ONE sheet last night and it hangs up, and same today with different plotter drivers.

 

I have a Case ticket with Autodesk Case 18450090 created November 23 and no response from them other than creating the ticket.

 

This is happening in both the 2019 and 2021 BIM360 projects, I was using Bluebeam and switched to DiRoots same issue.

Anyone else having problems?

I do have BlueBeam, not the primary print driver; however, I have just checked printing from 2 different Cloud projects and I have No issues here...

 

The issue you are having could and most likely is a windows update issue.

Thank you for responding.

 

All windows updates are current, and the video driver and Bluebeam is up-to-date, along with all Autodesk hotfixes, updates, and patches.

Is the issue project specific?  Have you tried the Revit 2022 native PDF export?

Hi,

These are three active projects two in 2019, and one in 2021. Please let me know if the Native 2022 PDF works in those versions as I do not need this version yet.

This issue appeared a month ago when trying to print one sheet of sections. I deleted and re-built this sheet with the same results. If the first PDF takes 1 hour and if I need to re-print in the same session second time is the normal few minutes. Only the first time printing any sheet is very time-consuming.

Sorry I misread that you could not print in Revit 2019 and 2022, not 2021.  No, the native PDF export is for Revit 2022 only.
