Line weight printing options

We are using "line weights view" to view drawings at a high zoom level. We would like to print the current view including the "line weights view".
Is there a possibility to print the "line weights view"?

Hi marybelleanne
Sorry, but what you see is what you get. Why would you want
to change it? Are you finding it difficult to see? If so, perhaps
you should consider submitting a feature request that would ask for
us to have the ability to define the color and width? You may do
this by

  • PRINT PRODUCTION - CONVERT COLORS - CHANGING LINE WEIGHTS FROM 5 PT TO 1 PT - BIG PROBLEM

    I've had three jobs in the past months from customers.  Most are created in Indesign with a variety of graphics and illustraitions (Illustrator).
    When I made a PDF and use the PRINT PRODUCTION ==> CONVERT COLORS ==. CONVERT COLORS TO OUTPUT INTENT and SELECT PRESERVE BLACK some of the lines change.
    1) Today a customer usinged 5pt stroked curved lines created in Indesign in the background of a page.  Acrobat saw them as 5 pt and when I used the workflow above changed them to 1 pt.
    2) Another example:  a circle was drawn in Illustrator, stroked with 7 pt stroke.  The graphic imported into INDESIGN.  I exported to PDF and ran the above workflow and it changed the stroke to 1.
    3) Another example:  A customer created a honeycomb in Illustrator with a .25 pt stroke, imported graphic into page in INDESIGN. I exported to PDF and ran the above workflow and it changed the stroke to 1.
    I use this workflow to change all colors from graphics to CMYK.
    Why is changing line weights?

    Oops!! Not until now I discover that under 'Solutions' I happened to write 'untick' where it should be 'tick'! I.e, colors SHOULD be converted to RGB in order to circumvent the problems! I.e it runs havoc in v9 when CMYK colors are NOT converted to RGB! Don't know how I came to write the opposite, but probably I started out by describing the situation where the problems are seen rather than describing how to avoid them.
    Equally strange is that nobody corrected me, but perhaps the mistake was so obvious? (But whether you see problems or not might depend on what fonts you use. So, under certain special circumstances, CMYK might actually work without these reported problems.)
    I am also a bit surprised that others haven't reported the issue that the PDF version set in PDF job Options isn't respected when using 'Save As PDF' and Acrobat 9? (Or maybe someone has, but I have missed it.)

  • Export or Print different line weights (like in AutoCAD)

    Is there a way to Export / Print / Save As artwork with reduced line weights like you can in AutoCAD? i.e. Export a PDF and all line thickness is reduced by 50%
    I have a map project that I'm working on and I want to export different sections of the map at different scales (different zoom levels) which when you export a PDF, displays line thickess differently for each level of zoom. I'd like to have it setup similar to AutoCAD where I can create a window and now matter what level of zoom, the lines are exported at the same thickness (I'd use Artboards as export windows)
    Sorry if this is confusing!  Is there a Plug-In or another way to do this without physically changing the line weights?

    Do you want a PDF that displays different line weights depending on zoom level? Not possible. Or do you want to export a PDF with line weights different from the ones in your Illustrator file? Possible, even recordable as an action.
    Once the artwork is selected, go to Object > Transform > Scale. Scale to 50% and turn on Scale Strokes & Effects, then click OK. Repeat, this time with scaling set to 200% and turn off Scale Strokes & Effects. Save or Save a Copy, then undo twice.
    Here it is an an action: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/5005292/Set_1.aia

  • Line space removed when selecting save or print options

    I created a form in CS3, converted to PDF in Pro 9 and filled-in the text.  I edited the form to include additional information, and now each time I select "Save" or "Print" option the line spaces I entered are removed as though there is some compression feature that's doing this. This also happens if I click on the form outside the text box with any tool..Does anybody have a suggestion or answer for me?  If you'd like to be placed on the list of my most favorite people, I'd appreciaate your response!

    Are you sure this is happening when you print to PDF?
    And not, later, when you print the PDF?
    What print scaling do you choose in Adobe Reader/Acrobat?

  • How do I set a PDF Export Preset to force a minimum line weight on output?

    How do I set a PDF Export Preset to force a minimum line weight on output?  I'm currently using one that came from a printer that works great - but I can't seem to find the option when creating one myself.  I have some placed Illustrator line art that is built with .25 line thickness and when I have it placed at 20% scale the lines are too thin to see in the PDF output.

    There is absolutely no way to force minimum line widths within InDesign itself, certainly not as part of the PDF export process!! And even one writes a script to go through every object within an InDesign document and both validate and fix line widths less than some particular threshold, such a script would be useless against placed artwork, the contents of which are not available for manual or programmatic inspection within InDesign.
    Note that one should be exceptionally careful in “fixing” hairlines, especially if you are placing vector artwork at very low magnification. It may actually be OK to let certain lines drop out. After a fixup on some content, you could end up with a messy mass of lines.

  • Line weight problem

    When I convert fonts to outline then export from CS5 AI or ID as a PDF I sometimes get distortion in vertical strokes ie. the letter L, where the line weight will appear bolder than the original font.
    The PDF will print showing the bolder line weight but if I re-open the same PDF file in Illustrator the line weight is correct.  I also occasionally get the same problem in line artwork.
    I have Adobe Reader X and I'm working on an XP PC
    Hoping someone can help - thanks.

    rwl3,
    You may have Align to Pixel Grid ticked in the Transform palette. You can see it when the object is selected.
    If so, you probably have Align New Objects to Pixel Grid ticked in the Options.
    To cure this, you may select everything and untick both.

  • Signature in PDF appears too heavy (line weight)

    Hello,
    I have excel documents which need to have an actual signature. I have scanned in my signature and have it as a TIF file amongst others. I have the full Adobe CS3 suite so I have cleaned up the sig in PS and saved it in various formats.
    When I import the picture file into excel the signature looks and prints fine, but as soon as I create a PDF the line weight on the signature becomes extremely heavy and it looks awful, both on-screen and printed.
    I have used the Save For Web & Devices option to create a transparent GIF from the TIF file and this also results in extremely thick line weights in the PDF only.
    If I simply copy and paste the signature in from PS or AI, the line weight is fine both pre/post PDF, however the background is no longer transparent.
    I have tried searching for this issue in the forums with no luck so if the answer lies under a topic I have missed I would appreciate being redirected there.
    Thanks,
    Dave

    Hi Mike,
    I need the signature to sign off on data that is sent to our clients.
    As an update...
    We have a couple of tablet PCs here so I have created my signature using one of these. I now have a crisp/clean image of my signature which I have saved as an EPS file. It looks great both pre/post PDF creation.
    Attaching the image to a digital signature is definitely something I am going to explore.
    I am still curious as to why distilling the scanned signature yields the ultra fat line weights.
    Thanks,
    Dave

  • PDF "line weight" issues

    When exporting my document (full of graphs and charts) from Microsoft Word 2010 into Acrobat Pro as a PDF, I am having "line weight" issues upon zooming in and out of the document.  Depending on whether I zoom in or out and to what extent, lines disappear, become thicker or thinner or criss-cross eachother; There seems to be no "line weight" problems when printing though.  Does anyone have an answer?

    Try changing the Rendering options on Preferences > Page Display. For example, make sure Smooth line art and Enhance thin lines are checked.
    There will be variation in previewing line weight because of the lower resolution of a screen. On the printer, which has higher resolution, you're seeing a more accurate preview of the objects.

  • How to set print option for a Billing document using T-code VF02

    Hi All,
    Please suggest me the way to set print option for a Billing document for T-code VF02 and please let me know how to get print preview for any particular Billing document?
    regards
    Anand.

    Enter the billing documents detail
    Goto Goto> Header>Output.
    Check the status for your output type in this screen.
    If it is green then come back to the VF03 screen.Enter the billing document number.
    Click on Billing document-->Issue output to.
    Press (CtrlShiftF1) or click on the icon beside "Print options".
    Here you can see the print preview.
    If the status is red then click on the processing log.Here you will get the error messages.
    If the status is in yellow colour,then click on the "Further Data" button
    Set "Dispatch time" as "4 Send immediately (when saving the application)"
    Before the print preview option you should make sure you have added correct output type to the relevant billing document. To do that, go to transaction VF02.
    Enter the billing document no
    Go to Menu option -> Go to -> Header -> Output
    In that screen you have to add relevant output type. (Standard output type is RD00)
    Add that & press enter key
    Highlight that line & press "Further Data" button
    Set "Dispatch time" as "4 Send immediately (when saving the application)"
    Press "Back" Button
    again select that line & go to "Communication method" button
    Set "Logical destination" as LOCAL"
    Don't mark "Print immediately" & "Release after output" ticks. If you mark them, sa soon as you save the billing document, you'll get a print out.
    Press "Back" Button
    Save
    Now form the initial "Change Billing Document" screen, Go to Menu option; Billing Document -> Issue Output to
    You can see that output type line appear.
    select that line & press "Print Preview" button or (CTRLSHIFTF1)
    You can see the print preview.
    Alternatively you can use VF31 to print multiple print outs at same time.
    If you want to get PDF outputs of billing documents, go to your printer settings in the your computer from Control Panel.
    Set PDF Writer as "Default Printer" (Right click & select "Set as Default Printer")
    Then normal way, print the billing from SAP.
    It'll automatically send to your PDF writer. You can save it to the path you want,

  • Thanks For Your Support in advance i want to know that when I open a website that time view print option and when I click close button then page also new window page also close. I want to copy it how i can stop this print option?

    WHEN I OPEN A URL THAT TIME WITH PAGE OPEN SHOWS PRINT OPTION AND WHEN I CLICK CLOSE BUTTON OF PRINT OPTION THAT TIME NEW WINDOW BUTTON IS CLOSED. I WANT TO CLOSE ONLY PRINT OPTION. PLEASE HELP ME...............THANKS

    Many sites which offer specific "print formatted" pages do that: they assume that once you have finished with the print dialog you no longer want the page itself. So for your convenience they close it. Not so convenient for you, since you still want to view the page.
    I'm not aware of an easy solution for this. I can think of a couple different approaches.
    First, maybe there's an add-on to solve this? That would be easiest.
    Second, maybe there's a userscript to solve this?
    The Greasemonkey add-on runs userscripts which you can copy or download. Be careful to install only long-establish and trusted scripts. (''Is there a site that has this bad behavior that I can view without logging in? I will test one of my existing scripts to see whether it helps.'')
    Third, Firefox has an old system for restricting site permissions in a custom text file in your profile folder (named user.js). Editing this file is a bit advanced, and I haven't been able to test it, but the system works along these lines:
    <br>// Define a policy name for window.close permission
    // (assumes you don't have this pref already)
    user_pref("capability.policy.policynames", "nowindowclose");
    // Define policy: disable sites from using window.close
    // in their scripts
    user_pref("capability.policy.nowindowclose.Window.close", "noAccess");
    // List of sites subject to this policy
    user_pref("capability.policy.nowindowclose.sites", "firstbadsite.com secondbadsite.com");
    Again, I haven't tested that and recommend looking into add-ons first.

  • Cell Border Line Weight

    I would like to use different Line Weights on spreadsheet cell borders, but no matter what Line Weight I choose from the Accents window, I always get (both visually and printed) the same Line Weight (hairline?) when I set a cell border. Am I missing something?

    I didn't enter the system details because the problem appeared on all the (different) systems I tried: iBook G4 (OS X 10.3.8), iMac G4 (OS X 10.3.9), iMac G5 (OS X 10.4.?), AppleWorks 6.2.7 and 6.2.9. I understand the need in general, but since this problem persisted across all these platforms, I thought that it would either be a well-known usage problem or bug (even though my best efforts could find no mention of it).
    Thanks for your response.

  • How do you get a list of your contacts nick names and their phone numbers on line and print them out?

    How do you get a list of your contacts nick names and their phone numbers on line and print them out?  I've been trying to figure out how to get the list to print out but I can't even find a complete list to view on Verizon's web site.  Does anyone know how to do this?

    Log into your online account. In the, 'I want to', box type, Manage Contacts.
    Place your cursor over any contact, a pop screen will appear with the option to print your contacts

  • Graph legend and print options

    When building a graph using the graphTable bean, I'd like to place the legend below the graph instead of above. How can this be done?
    Also, the graph plots a number of lines, each of which is rendered in a different color. Is there a way to make the graph lines cross-hatched, or dotted, or something else so that when printed in black and white the user is able to associate the graph line with the legend?

    Hi,
    Take a look at SAP note #1049778. For recent releases, the device type HP4350 should be already available in transaction SPAD n the system.
    Also as per SAP note #1049778, most of the new device types that were developed within the SAP Printer Vendor program (SAP note #1130927) support the new print options.(see SAP note #1103422)

  • Line Weights in Acrobat X Pro

    Hi People,
    When  I opened a pdf attachment in email (Outlook) the "Line Weight" is very very small.  When I save the attachment and then open it in the free reader the line weights are all OK.
    I have tried toggling the "Line Weight" option in "View, Show/Hide, Rulers & Grids, Line Weights",  but I see no change in the display.
    What am I missing?
