I am experiencing substantial line loss in the final pdf when using the export to pdf function in Vectorworks.
This happens whether I export directly out of the design layer, viewports and sheets. These lines in question are on the same design layer, noted classes active.
Lines that are less then true vertical or true horizontal, such as curves (ovals or note clouds) or angled lines off access (not 0,90,180,270 degrees) print as if they were in a class/layer that is grayed out.
Avenues I have tried for correction...
Increased line weight. No change.
Adjusted VWorks preference settings (GDI, DPI, etc.,.) No change.
Print to pdf (Acrobat 8 professional) seems to work fine, although with larger files it hangs my system. Exporting to pdf from VWorks is faster.
Export to eps, drag and drop into Adobe distiller works.
I am running VWorks 2009. I also still have VWorks 12.5 on my pc. Tried the same with that version. Same line loss result.
Is there a setting within Vectorworks that I am missing to correct this issue?
Thanks.
