It seems that there is a limit to the size of the page that can be printed or made into a PDF with VW 9.5 on OS X. I am using the built-in PDF feature (File >> Print >> Save as PDF). I have found that if I make a PDF with a page size larger than about 55" wide the PDF comes out blank. The same thing is true if I save it as a postscript file and then run it through distiller. It is frustrating because this never was an issue with OS 9 and distiller. Other applications, such as Photoshop and Appleworks, have no problems creating PDFs with large page sizes, so it must be a VectorWorks bug.
