pg3d Posted September 5, 2006 Share Posted September 5, 2006 Could anyone tell me the best way to create a pdf from vectorworks 12? I have started using some trial versions of different pdf creation software and have not had very good luck. Could be sleep deprivation or maybe if I would quit banging my head on my keyboard I could think more clearly. One pdf printer driver I was trying leaves off the dimension of the floor plan. I think it was Bluebeam Lite. Any software suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks Quote Link to comment
Gytis Posted September 5, 2006 Share Posted September 5, 2006 First, search previous threads in these forums. There have been many discussions regarding this process. Second, supply pertinent info, like OS and hardware. Quote Link to comment
pg3d Posted September 5, 2006 Author Share Posted September 5, 2006 I'm an idiot. I had been searching previous posts but was not finding anything thus I posted the question. However, I was not changing the date and was only getting recent posts. I am on Windows XP, I'll try out some of the other pdf creation software recommended in some old posts and see I have the same problem. Quote Link to comment
Guest Posted September 5, 2006 Share Posted September 5, 2006 I sometimes use Cute Pdf Go to http://www.cutepdf.com Their free version works OK for me Quote Link to comment
marek.dk Posted September 7, 2006 Share Posted September 7, 2006 if you are on mac, I find the most reliable way to produce a pdf is to save as .ps (postscript) from the print dialog box. then opening in preview will automatically convert it to a pdf that is 100 percent identical with what you would print from vw. I wonder why the export to pdf or the save as pdf from the print dialog box doesn?t work properly. I hope it will be fixed soon. Quote Link to comment
