Does anyone know how to convert DWG's into PDF's without having the black backgroud? Thanks,

How are you printing your pdf files? I never had one with a black background.

I use Adobe Acobat Professional and PDF995 (shareware). Several members on this forum has recommended CUTEPDF.

If you're talking about the black ACAD screen, PDFs print with a white background, just the way that drawings plot on paper.

If the black background shows up when you print the PDF, check the Print dialog box. Some versions of Acrobat Reader have an option to print colors as black, and a gray or light-colored background will print black if that option is checked.
