Hello,
I am having a problem with printing to PDF out of a drawing in Microstation. When I select a fence, then go to file>print and select a Bentley PDF driver and hit plot....nothing happens. I am not getting the "save as" dialog box pop up that I would expect. In addition, I am not able to select a windows driver to try to use a windows PDF printer as a possibly solution.
Also worth noting, this problem is only happening on projects hosted on ProjectWise. When I work on a project that is locally hosted I am able to print to PDF and select a windows printer as expected.
Any ideas???
Jan,
Here is some more information.....
Windows: Version 10.0.1629
Mirostation: PowerGeopak V8i (SELECT series 4) Version 08.11.09.878
Projectwise: ProjectWise Explorer V8i (SELECT series 4) Version 08.11.11.590
The print preview does update and look accurate. I have tried the method to select the drive and set parameters prior to setting the fence and it does not make a difference.
I am using a .pltcfg driver file.
I am using a managed workspace through ProjectWise. The workspace used on ProjectWise is not controlled by my firm and is controlled by the client so I am not able to modify anything with it. However, there are contacts from other firms that I have checked with that are able to print from a drawing in ProjectWise using the same managed workspace.
Jacob,
Off the top of my head - If everything else is working fine, I'd run a repair on the PW install.This falls into the "jiggle the plug" category of fixes.Also - Check the message center at the bottom of the screen - are you getting any messages like "error creating plot file" etc.Do you have any workspaces that might be interfering with the PW workspace?Try doing a "Save as" of your dgn file - does that work? I'm thinking maybe a permissions problem.
