Printing to PDF freezs Plotmaker

Anonymous
Not applicable
In recent weeks I have been unable to print using Amyuni PDF converter.
It doesn't happen all the time but on some files it will freeze plotmaker.
I have tried it with my template file and it print OK, so that suggests to me that there is something I have imported that is causing this. I import my drawings as PLN's.
Has any one ever had a similar problem.

8.1? Which OS?

Memory? Disk space? Access rights? Saving the PDF to local disk or network?

Access rights? I am the only one using this computer and it is not networked

I tried removing some of the drawings from my PM layout and had some success with removing the elevations, but this was not consistent as latter on it froze again.

Thanks Richard

I had some issues if the fills "display and output" option (in display setting) was set to bit map versus "keep original settings". It would be nice if display and output were separate for this setting. I change it if I have imported drawings that are heavily laden with vectorial fills such that I can navigate through plotmaker in a reasonable amount of time.
