devonhead Posted August 17, 2011 Share Posted August 17, 2011 I like using wipeouts in adding text over busy sections of plant layouts. When they are printed as an pdf on an A3 they usually print fine. If the pdf is printed as an A1 or AO then the wipeouts have like a solid hatch pattern over them. I would like to continue using wipeouts to add text over details on a drawing if possible. Has anybody else experienced this problem and have they found a solution?

MSasu Posted August 17, 2011 Share Posted August 17, 2011 Seems that the solution is to use the AutoCAD built-in virtual PDF printer. Regards, Mircea Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Organic Posted August 17, 2011 Share Posted August 17, 2011 Wipeouts are a real pain for this reason alone and in my opinion should not be used at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adju Posted January 25, 2019 Share Posted January 25, 2019 I had some issues in the past but a good trick is to change the color of the wipeout by using "255". Works for me in the past. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
