[RE-wrenches] Cad to PDF problem

[Max Balchowsky]

check the properties of the lines your using in cad - their are different settings that look white in acad but are in fact a different property when plotted in PDF.

If you are printing an image rather than 
text to pdf, do a control>print screen, open a new blank window in 
acad and paste it in. You can then get whatever appears on the dwg file more or 
less 1:1. It does not always give the sharpest images this way and colors 
can shift but it does do some things acad won't. 
Acad draws vector images instead of raster so they don't always blow 
up cleanly. 
Have you changed any settings recently?

Friends:

I am having problems printing CAD drawings to a  pdf.  My lines are very thin and faint.  Has anyone else experienced  this?  Got any ideas???

Thanks in advance.

PS:  Adobe Pro has a hairline fix tool -- does the job but  adds a step.  Looking for something 
automatic.
