Problem

When printing a profile or graph to PDF the quality of the resulting PDF is poor.

Solution

The quality of the PDF you create depends on the PDF printer driver you select and the settings of that driver.

Try selecting a different PDF printer driver when creating the PDF.

Also, look at the PDF printer driver settings to see if there is an option to improve the quality.

One tip would be to export your project as an image via built-in export to image file.

You can find this tool under: File > Print > Print Preview > Export Document > Image File


Once exported you can open it in an image editor and export it to PDF.
