I have used Autocad for many years and am fairly experienced to CAD.
Now I have made my first drawing in Qcad but I can not print och export to pdf. I have read all instructions.
What is wrong?

Re: I can not print och export to pdf
Please refer to our tutorial for Printing and PDF Export:
https://www.qcad.org/en/tutorial-printing
Please let us know which step appears to be the problem. From what I can see in the drawing, the drawing has not yet been set up for printing (paper size is A4, drawing size is ~58 Meters and the scale is 1:1). The drawing does not fit on the paper at this scale.

Re: I can not print och export to pdf
Actually it is set up in Paper_Space with a Viewport on a A1 / 1:100. However, trying to figure out what is going on will crash my QCAD ...

Re: I can not print och export to pdf
Could you please do the proper setup and return the drawing to me? Then I will understand.
Re: I can not print och export to pdf
Right. I cannot reproduce the crash but I do see that the bottom border is not defined for the layout and the offsets are off:
1. Load the drawing
2. View > Block List
3. Edit > Drawing Preferences > Printing > Multi Pages > Glue Margins > Bottom: 0
4. Edit > Drawing Preferences > Printing > Page > Offset X / Offset Y: 0
5. Save file under a new name, close and re-open
