PDF upsidedown

Anonymous — Fri, 19 May 2023 20:20:31 GMT

When publishing a Layout with a PDF attached to it The PDF prints upside down. It looks fine in the layout though. The PDF has not been rotated or manipulated in any way. Came directly from one of our engineers.

Has anyone encountered this before? I am working on AC 11 v1200

Windows or Mac?

I have seen similar problems (mostly on Windows - the Mac OS is very tightly integrated with PDF) but not exactly what you describe.

What happens if you turn it upside down on the layout?

This will sometimes happen if you have modified the original pdf in Acrobat. If the pdf was rotated, even if the orientation was switched from portrait to landscape, the imported pdf will print upside down.
If you can, open the pdf with Acrobat, save it as another app (doc,xls) and create a new pdf with the desired layout...of course if you are pressed for time, do as Matthew suggested and rotate the imported drawing 180 degrees.
