Adobe PDF print light color

[gafemon]

Hi all,

 

I need to constantly print PDF to email to client and to print directly from printer for our project leader to review. But whenever I print by "Adobe PDF" the color is lighter than if I just print from our office printer.

 

I setup plot style by making different % of screening on each color and by adjusting line weight on drawing layer.

 

What am I doing wrong?

Did you try the DWG to PDF.pc3?

 

Can you post your plot settings and a PDF that shows this? Can you post a .dwg?

I'm using background mask on the text, if I save using DWG to PDF, it will show black block on the text. that's why i use Adobe PDF. I can not attach any file for some reason. what can i do?

What colour are you setting your background mask to? Sometimes when setting it I have noticed that pen styles are ignored and your mask will print black (only happens with text). Try setting the background mask to same colour as background (it is a selection box).
