Mrlourd Posted June 5, 2017 Share Posted June 5, 2017 Hi, I am having some difficulties printing out a drawing. No matter what I do, although the print preview is fine, once I click ok to save it as a pdf it now has has a greenish type of color. Please advise.

ReMark Posted June 5, 2017 Share Posted June 5, 2017 And you selected monochrome as your output of choice? Can you attach a copy of the drawing (.dwg file) to your next post? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ReMark Posted June 5, 2017 Share Posted June 5, 2017 Not the .dwg file I requested so I can't test print it (to PDF file format) myself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dana W Posted June 5, 2017 Share Posted June 5, 2017 The ctb file your layout is calling, was not provided (same for the xref's) so I changed to the monochrome.ctb and everything printed to the pdf document in black, minus the missing floor plan xref. It looks like most of the blue in your doc4.pdf is coming from the xref. Without the xref file. I can only guess that the colors in it are not index colors (1 - 255) but true colors, which AutoCad ctb files cannot change or process in any way other than to put them out the way they come in.
