Circular Column visualization

Anonymous
Not applicable
Hi!
Trying to make a good documentation of this view:

Red circles are circular columns.
When I try to export this view and make a pdf file, I get this picture:

All circular columns are segmented with only few faces.
How can I increase faces of these columns to make them more smooth?

If you select the pdf file in the Publisher, click on the Document Options... button, under Document Options select the PDF options, at the bottom of the dialog box are Resolution Options, try setting the Arc resolution to a higher dpi.

You should add a Signature to your Profile (click the Profile button near the top of this page) with your ArchiCAD version and operating system (see mine for an example) for more accurate help in this forum.
