PDF orientation
PDF orientation
(OP)
My .SLDDRW is oriented "Landscape". So it prints Landscape.
But when I save it as .PDF file, and than open with Acrobat7.0, the .PDF "sheet" is ALWAYS "portrait" and the dwg in it is "Landscape", no matter what I tried to do.
Any clues how to force the .PDF "sheet" to be "Landscape" as well ?

RE: PDF orientation
Please explain in more detail - I don't get it.
BTW, I am NOT printing, just creating .PDF file using SW2005 SP4.0 and Save As ....PDF
I also noticed, that even though I set Landscape in the page set up and save (no print though), the Landscape is there, but AFTER I Save As ...PDF, and than check Page set up, the setting is - PORTRAIT.
Why the hell the Save As ...PDF changes that (i.e. from Landscape to Portrait) ?????

Another thing to try is to make sure that you have the permissions set up correctly on the Bluebeam PDF printer.
Access the printer through the Control Panel, go to Properties, and on the Security tab make sure that your users have the ability to Manage Printers and Manage Documents. We ran into this problem here and changing the printer setup fixed the problem.

to any of the ones you may have. (Bluebeam, Adobe, pdf995, etc).
File > Print, select PDF printer of your choice, choose whatever options you want under the Properties and
Page Setup sections and then OK

Kina "not very clear enough for a dummy", but anyway, my admin is back and after about half an hour of trying and swearing we managed to get it working.
It looks like on XP Professional you need to be set as a Power User to have your printer settings being accepted by the OS.
Thank you guys for the help !!
