cannot print to pdf

[lge]

I need to print a PDF so I can take the file to be printed at Fedex/Kinkos. 

 

I have AutoCAD LT 2021 for Mac. Computer recently upgraded to Tahoe OS.

 

In trying to fix this I found that I seem to have two versions of the app: AutoCAD LT 2021 and AutoCAD LT 2021F. The 2021F, I think I understand, is the new version created by the upgrade to Tahoe.

 

In the Plot window, the Print drop-down does not have the option for printing to PDF. There are only physical printers listed.

 

The Save to PDF button at the bottom creates an Acrobat error and will not print.

 

Export to PDF does not work.

 

In addition, the Plot Style is set to Print As Displayed. I am not using .ctb because I can’t get one loaded at this point. The drop-down options for Plot Style are New, Import, Reveal in Finder. These are not working. (I want them to work eventually, but I have to get the PDF printed as soon as possible.) So setting the Plot Style to other than Print As Displayed can wait for now.

 

I’m thinking this is a file path issue, but I have no idea how  fix it. But maybe that's wrong.

 

Thank you for any help.

I looked at the Autodesk site and as far as I know only AutoCAD for MAC (LT) 2026 is compatible with Tahoe which was just released September 2025.

 

Can you print to an image file, that may work, or just see if Fedex/Kinkos can print the drawing file.

We used to have a 3rd party PDF printer - it also worked with all the office applications for example. Worked just the same as adding any other physical printer, might be a solution.

 

However I thought LT had a PDF plotter as a part of the package
