The DWG To PDF.pc3 driver in AutoCAD is notoriously BAD!  At least in my experience.  If you really want to create a usable quality PDF from a drawing I suggest you take the separate step of printing/plotting/publishing first to a DWF.  Then from within Autodesk Design Review print that same file to a PDF.

You'll see dramatic improvements.

Dave.

Hello John

I find if I enter TEXTFILL, 1, it works.

I just would like to understand the mechanics behind this.

Thankyou John

Can you guide me as to how to find this.
Is it a plot style or am I missing something?

Leonard

Make sure the "Z" value of your text is set to "0".

Hello Forum

I am printing drawing to PDF.
Lettering does not print solid.
The font style is Arial.

Any advice helpful please.
