Archicad 17 to PDF to Photoshop CS6

Anonymous
Not applicable
Photoshop CS6 can't open certain Archicad 17 elements for example gravel fill. As soon as I try to open PDF with that fill in Photoshop the program crashes. It can't be because of the size, because it's 72 kB.

Attachment: A4 1:20 detail of foundation with gravel fill - instant photoshop crash.

EDIT:

Discovered something. If i'm using PRINT command rather than SAVE AS and selecting CUTE PDF WRITER for printer then it's possible to open those PDF-s in Photoshop without incident.

So something must be wrong with the Archicad save engine or something.

EDIT 2:

Found another way to open them in Photoshop. Opening them in Adobe Acrobat Pro and then resaving them with Acrobat pro.
