Pen weight doubles after publishing to PDF

Hello, 

I'm using AC 26 HUN solo (no TM), and I have the following problem with publishing:

The line weights are doubled in the published PDFs throught the project compared to what I see on the drawing placed on the Layout. 

I checked the following:

- the drawing is placed at 100% scale on the layout

- true line weights are on 

- the pen set is not overridden in the placed drawing's settings.

- the exported PDF is the correct sheet size

- there is no pen set that with the line weights seen in the published drawing

- Similar problems arose when we were working on TM projects, the solution there was deleting the TM DATA folder in the user's Graphisoft folder. Is there a similar reset for solo archicad?

Windows 11. After some testing this thickening seems 'business as usual', it occurs on different computers, different porjects, so I guess I'll justa have to reduce all line weights a bit in the pen sets.
