Printing to PDF with CuteWriter. problems with or alternatives to.

(OP)
When printing to PDF using CuteWriter I notice that my line weights are not being preserved and everything comes out the same weight. In searching the forum I notice a number of members use CuteWriter and wonder if I have some settings wrong or do I need the professional version to preserve line weights.
Are there any alternative PDF writers that I should consider that work well with SW 2012?

Thanks for your time

I just simply use the 'saveas' command and choose *.PDF. No muss, no fuss for me.

Thanks JMirisola.. in searching the forum I noticed this was an option that I did not know was available (Save As PDF)I have tried it and it works well.

RE: Printing to PDF with CuteWriter. problems with or alternatives to.

I've been using CutePDF for a long time now an have not find any issues. I've read many people having issues with using Save AS PDF option, so there is no harm in trying out this free tool.
