Plotting to PDF with layers Autocad LT 2009

[grain]

Hi,

 

There doesn't seem to be an option to plot to PDF with layers. (I have gone into the custom properties but there is no option to 'retain layer information'. Thats using PDF to Dwg.pc3 I also have CutePDF Writer that doesnt have the option either. Maybe you have to get Acrobat Pro?

Take a look at publish rather than plot, I can get at that in the publish options.

Hi Steven,

 

I only seem to be able to Publish to the DWF electronic format.

Then it might not be available in 2009

Thanks anyway. I'll probably look into some more advanced PDF software.

Hi grain,

 

If you cannot retain layer information while publishing from ACAD 2009 (or earlier)... You could just install DWG TrueView and use that for all your publishing. You should be able to publish to PDF and keep your layers, no worries.

 

Good luck.

Thanks Lamensterms. That works perfectly.
