[Solved] Can't Read Text After Export to PDF

Post by Cold-Rite » Fri Jul 03, 2020 2:59 am

Morning all,

Untrained Noob here.
I am having an issue where I can't read the text on a plan after I export to PDF.
When viewing normally, all text is readable and easy to understand. I export to PDF and the lineweight of all the text changes making it illegible.
I have attached a "Pre Export" and a "Post Export" screenshot for your reference.

Appreciate your help and patience.

Cheers

Moses

Hi,
looks like just a print setting doesn't suits the requirement - please refer to this print tutorial to see what could it be:

https://qcad.org/en/tutorial-printing

If you still face print issues after studying the print tutorial please attache the drawing to this topic for further investigation. Thanks.

If a thread is considered as "solved" please change the title of the first post to "[solved] Title..."
