PDF Publishing from Archicad Mac OSX - Not Plotmaker!

[archislave]

I am totally confused as to the options of saving vs printing to pdf in the Publisher within Archicad itself.

I can go to file/page setup and choose 24X36 landscape.
In publisher I choose save to file and publish as a multi-page pdf.
When the pdf is created a single 24x36 sheet is broken into many
8.5x11 tiled pages.

No mater what I choose in print setup changes the way it publishes the letter size sheets and it will not produce a landscape even!

I have not had this problem in Plotmaker. I just want to make quick 24x36 1/4" scale floor plans to pdf.

Help! I think they did not finish the programming on this one.

What ArchiCAD version are you using?

I just tried the same setup with the same results. Set to Architectural D size sheet and Published a series of letter size PDF files.

Printing generally is a bit flakey from ArchiCAD. a couple of times I have tried to print a scaled marquee only to get a tiny print and a small scale.

When you are in the page setup tab open "properties". I've noticed that if you set the paper size there it will keep the paper settings where in "page setup" it doesn't always.
