Publishing to PDF from SSM does not print raster images - Autocad 2012

Hello everyone,

This is my first post here as I have just found this forum.

I am facing the following problem in Autocad 2012:

I have set all the drawings I want to print in the Sheet Set Manager and I publish everything to plotter for unattended plotting. However, when publishing the same drawings to PDF using the SSM, all raster images do no print. If I open each drawing and plot the same layout on its own, everything prints just fine. So I think there is something wrong when publishing through the SSM.

The funny thing is that before using Autocad 2012 I was using version 2010 and everything worked as expected, the raster images were printed no matter where I was printing from.

Any ideas?

Thank you in advance,

Well, it seems no one knows anything about this, so by looking really hard I came upon another symptom:

when background plotting is disabled for publishing, the raster images print just fine, when it's on they don't!!!

Now, this is utterly annoying in sheet sets containing 150 sheets

The funny thing is that it used to work in 2010 so I have to keep looking...
