Hi there!
Probably I'm doing something wrong... if not, Revit stills in 1990 regarding sheet composing and export, missing basic tools.
I need to add a solid background colour to a view. So far I was only able to find "Gradient", "Image" or "Sky".
I tried Gradient using the same color on the 3 areas... it worked, but now, it raster on export to PDF, instead of keeping everything as vector.
Any hint on this?

That would be my expectation. But, I'm a 1990s kind of guy. ![]()
On my opinion, it makes no sense overload a PDF with raster images, just because a solid color background.
If it's possible to export everything in vectors, with consistent colours on the walls, doors, etc, why just add a simple solid background colour transform everything on an image?
City hall demands Vector PDF documents, and Revit obligate me to send it in a boring white background.
Can you convert to Vector in Adobe Suite? Batch print all your PDFs from Revit?
Yes, an extra step--but maybe achieves your end result.
You can export it as CAD with this setup. This will export your consistent color as solid fill in CAD. When you print from CAD, you will get layers attached to the PDF.
Thanks!
That's a good ideia!
Yes, I can edit the PDFs on Adobe Illustrator and correct everything, including add a basic background color. But will Autodesk pay my boss the Adobe Suite subscription? ![]()
Thank you!
Good hint, however on order to save it as PDF, I must have Autocad or similar.
My surprise is that all solutions for such a basic thing are walk arounds and/or the need of extra other apps.
Nevertheless a very valid solution!
Yea I wish Autodesk would work more on the output to PDF. I also have city that want vectorized shadow for elevation. So I have to go thru several hoops to get those shadow vectorized. Autodesk did put in native PDF output. Hope they push it further to give us more feature that we can use.
