View Full Version : Help - My parts of drawing missing when plotting

Hi

I have autocad LT 2007. I have just done a load of drawings and getting to the final stages. To check the layout of the drawing on the paper and send it to the surveyor to check certain areas I have plotted to PDF and also pressed the button APPLY TO LAYOUT. I thought I'd mention it as that may be the problem.

Basically I've noticed on one of my drawings the doors do not show on the PDF file and when I go into Layout 2 they come up as grey. Also I tried drawing a line and another door and it does the same. As the drawings are quite simple it has all been done on one layer. I have compared properties of the parts of the drawing that show to parts that don't and I can see no difference.

I've had a look on google and a couple of things have come up about publishing the drawing first, which I've tried but nothing has changed.

I have to print these off tomorrow so I'd be grateful for any ideas.

Thanks

June

Do you got any part draw on Defpoints layer?

No, they are all on one I created, which was working fine.

Try to setup monochrome on print setup and if you can post it, we can get better idea

Check that none of your layers are "no plot"
