    Default What I see in RVT is not what I get with DWFx export

    Anyone else have this problem? My walls are clearly visible in Revit with the view set to Wireframe, but when I export to DWF they are masked by the Area Color Fill.

    Actually I see this is also happening with PDF export. Turning off Hardware acceleration doesn't seem to help (with either format).

    Oddly I can see the walls being generated as I open the PDF, they're just hidden by the Area Color Fill

    When exporting are you exporting by vector or raster?
    Or are you talking 3d dwfs/pdfs?

    Outside chance, but have you tried to do that Raster to see if that issue goes away?
    I know it's not going to give you the ideal results you want, but it might be closer.

    This discussion thread is about the DWF format, not PDF. So you'd be better asking again in a different discussion.

    (Try different PDF plotters and PDF readers. It sounds like the walls are there but not being shown correctly.)
