Master Layout Printing Glitch?

Anonymous
Not applicable
HI

We have a problem when publishing a layout book. Has anyone encountered this:

When we publish (or even just print directly from the Layout - PDF or hardcopy), the layouts print all master layout items with Pen Set designated to attribute#1. This happens regardless of what Pen Set is active in the Master Layout window or the Layout sheet itself. We have everything possible now set to black but still can't publish with the sheet showing the pens referencing Pen Set with attribute # 1, i.e. Standard Archicad Pen table with colour we use for display purposes only INSTEAD OF PUBLISHING WITH BLACK TITLE BLOCK

Has anyone come across this and found a fix? We've created new Master Layouts and changed all pen settings of the master layout items but the problem persists (That's how we realized it was referencing the Pen Set with Attribute #1).

See image - the published version is the one with the colored title block....

Many Thanks

In your printing or PDF options you will probably find that the "Hairline" option is ticked.
Turn that off and all should be fine.
