  1. Good idea Michael! Do you find, or do you think that if you had more memory on your graphics card that that would speed up the time it takes to render? I'm currently working on a project that has a file size of about 85 mb. Is that what you would consider huge? Any suggestions to shrink it? Tim
  2. That's odd. It seems to work fine for me viewing in adobe acrobat 7.0 I was also able to make a large document fairly quickly w cutepdf. I also heard that adobe 8.0 acrobat solves the large format printing of docs, although I haven't bought it yet. Here's some more info on cute pdf: "To create PDF files: To use CutePDF Writer, open the file that you would like to print to PDF. Select the Print option (usually found under File > Print), and select "CutePDF Writer" from the list of available printers (DO NOT select Print to File option) to print. You will be prompted to select the destination directory and filename for your output file. Please note that some applications, such as NotePad, will automatically print to your default printer when you select the Print option. If you want to create PDF file, you may need to change your printer selection within that application before printing the file. This can typically be done from Page Setup. But you probably already done all that. Try visiting their website. Make sure you have enough ram and disk space, which is usually not a problem. One last thing, make sure you have the latest acrobast reader version. And check the settings to make it backward compatible to around version 4. Let me know if any of that works for you. Cheers Tim This is such a waste of time, isn't it? Nemetcheck should work on making their product first - as robust as possible, THEN add features. I've had constant problems with it. But what do you do? It's like swimming slightly more than halfway across a river when you realize you don't want to deal with the problems anymore. Do you stay the course and try to complete your swim, or turn around, swim back, and try another, better CAD product. Tough and frustating call.
  3. I'm assuming you're using Adobe Acrobat, in whatever version. I had a problem printing to PDF from Microsoft Project for a large (24x36) format sheet. I went to cutepdf.com and downloaded their free software. Worked like a charm. Supposedly Adobe 2008 takes care of the problem printing large format drawings. Vectorworks probably has the same problem. Try it and let me know if it works. Cheers Tim
  4. Regarding my post of 11/16, any comment from you Katie?
  5. George, Couldn't agree w you more. I just got a SN, fortunately a loan to try before I buy. The guys at Vectorfest said that VW2008 and SN would work together, yet there is hardly any functionality, and there is NO info from VW on how to seamlessly integrate it into VW. The only discussion or info I could find is this thread. Don't tout that it works when it doesn't. Also, I agree that NNA would much better serve their users by having a solid, robust product that's fast and crashproof than adding features just to sell product. The amount of time I've lost trying to solve crash problems has outweighed the cost of the product vs AutoCad enormously! I could have bought ALL of Autodesk's products and still come out ahead of VW. I'm very disheartened.
