ArchiCAD bug? Save layout as PDF or dwg = crash (AC13)

Anonymous — Sun, 30 Jan 2011 07:40:07 GMT

Dear all
Every time i want to save as pdf or dwg in "layout" sheets, ArchiCAD quits and I receive the Bug report notice. I'm using ArchiCAD13.
Can anybody help me in this?

I'm having the exact same problem. Strange too- it's not consistent. One layout will work then the next time it won't. Then I'll find a scratch file somewhere that seems to be an ok file. I open it in acrobat and save as pdf... then it's fine.
Could it be the fills? More often the sheets with fills (sections/ elevations/ siteplans) crash. Most of the time the floor plans are ok, but now those too crash.
I even tried saving as PDF outside the publisher. Still crashed.
