View Full Version : 2016 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.:shock:

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?

Hi David

Area plans in color, vector and 2d

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.

I have a similar problem. When using wireframe views wall don't plot to PDF. Anyone know how to fix it?
The curious thing is: with the PDF open, when i zoom in and out rapidly i see the walls and floor being generated and fastly removed from view...

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.)
