Print to PDF With Multiple Master Layouts

[Anonymous]

How do I get PM 3.1 to print to a PDF with more than one master layout - and actually come out looking right?

I've got two in my file, and the resulting PDF was an utter disaster, with drawings scattered all over the place, some of them spanning two pages each, most way off center, etc. It was a mess. I'm assuming the master layout situation was the root cause, as the system asked me upon set up what size page to use, and only allowed one choice.

Are you using the Amyuni driver that comes with Archicad. There is a tip that Erica Epstein pointed out regarding setting the paper margins to zero in the driver. Look in the tips section and see if that helps the problem. A page setup to chose the correct paper size should deal with any issues related to multiple master layouts.

No, because I have the full version of Acrobat, and 8.1 supports printing directly to that, unlike 8.0, which *required* Amyuni. I suppose I could try it, though, if the next attempt doesn't work.

OK, I'll see what I can find. Thanks.
