    Default Revit Printing and Topography Issue

    Hi Guys,

    I am trying to print my site drawings for a project I am working on. The site looks great in Revit's views and sheets, however when I print to PDF, DWF, and other formats a portion of the topography is truncated. Please refer to the attached pictures:

    In revit:

    In DWF:

    This is my first post on AUGI (long time visitor), please let me know if anything is out of sorts with this post. Thanks!

    Try printing Raster instead of vector. Just a thought.

    Also try a lower resolution in the PDF. We try to keep ours under 300 dpi, preferably 150 dpi. Also helps with the PDF file size.
    It requires a very unusual mind to undertake the analysis of the obvious.

    Thanks for the responses! I am not thrilled with the idea of printing Raster over Vector, but I just tried that out and it solved the issue. I am surprised that Revit is having trouble handling this file since it is a fairly simple topo map, however it does have a linked Revit file of the proposed building.
