Publish to PDF includes all layers...


Recommended Posts

Posted

I am getting this problem in Civil 2012 version F.107.0.0 SP1.

 

I can plot my sheets to a PDF using the PC3 i created one at a time and not get layer information. However, when i use either the SSM -> Publish -> Publish to PDF or Publish Dialog Box and use the same PC3, the layers show up.

 

I have looked and set everything i can find to "do not include layer information" yet it still does.

 

Any help please...

Good question.

If you really checked the "do not include layer information" in Publish options (but layers still are there) the only workaround I can imagine is the following one.

 

Open the layered file in Adobe Reader (or other free viewer) then plot it to a virtual PDF printer: my favourite is CutePDF.

 

The brand new created .PDF won't have selectable layers, 'cause they got flattened by CutePDF.
