AECOsim Building Designer SS6. Version - 08.11.09.829
Hi All,
The areas highlighted in the image below are black objects and texts printing (using AECOsim directory pdf.cfg) in grey color and i really cannot explain why?
Before you make any suggestions, i would like to make you aware of the following:
- This abnormalities is only experience in two only 2 of my AECOsim files. The rest files print okay so i assume its a file specific problem.
- but whenever i open these 2 files in Microstataion SS3 (08.11.09.578) and make a print (using Microstation directory pdf.cfg) , everything comes out well as expected.
- Since they print well in Microstation, each time i am attempting to print them in AECOsim, i borrow the pdf.cfg in Microstation directory instead and still no joy
- i don't use overrides
So guys, i am just a bit confused on how to troubleshoot this
I welcome all you suggestions
Thank you

Hi Steve,
Yes. they are all drawing models referenced into the sheet. Meanwhile, i have just come to realize that only all objects with these funny grey display are all live in their sheet models. The drawing model saved views are perfect.
So... the elements displayed as grey were placed directly in the Sheet model, with the remainder as reference attachments?
Yes. you are absolutely correct about that.
Why do you ask?
Henry,
It is possible that the reference attachments containing the grey elements have a colour adjustment applied?

Hi Marc,
As you can see from my screenshot above, the reference attachment and saved view display perfectly well. The objects I have highlighted and not printing accurately (printing in grey) are all LIVE objects
sorry, misread the comments!
Just to narrow things down a bit more, is the title block/border referenced in or is that live within the sheet model as well? Just trying to get a better handle on how things are arranged. To that end, if you could upload that model here perhaps that would help - assuming that if you were to open it separately from everything else that the same behavior persists.
