Hi there :),

I am trying to print A1 drawings with elevations.
For some reason they turn out messy. The tile block is missing, dimensions and text are missing, etc.
I've been told that this is because of the cast shadows option.

My question is what is your workflow when you print elevations with shadows?

Have you tried turning off the shadows in your elevations to see if the problem persists?
You are printing from the sheet view, yes?
(I use shadows in elevations often, no problem so far.....)

Check the date and time settings. You may have a view where shadows are minimized. One trick to use is to set the date to December 21st (northern hemisphere) which will give you maximum shadow.
