Printing PDF's made in Archicad - problems

Anonymous
Not applicable
An employee here has a problem that when he publishes a PDF and goes to print it using "preview" or Adobe, some of the fonts overlap, some things don't print entirely, etc.

He can print the sheet directly from ArchiCAD and everything is fine.

I can open his PDF and print it fine.

Ideas?

try a different pdf reader.
I have had good luck and some odd experiences with Acrobat on some pdfs. Sometimes if you have problems with a particular pdf try reprinting is with a different pdf creator.

Try Bullzip pdf creator. Simple and solid.
