I am trying to create a layered PDF in Connect (10.13.00.48). When opening the PDF there do not appear to be any layers. When I create the file in V8i I get the Layer tree with no problems.
I am using the option <PDFLevelLabel>1</PDFLevelLabel>
Attached is my pltcfg file. I have also tried setting in the Plot dialog box Print Levels/Reference to * for Level and File/Reference and On/Off set to On. In the References tab File/Reference set to * and On. I am still not getting my Levels in the PDF (see attached).
When I select my print driver It also sets the Printer/Paper size to PDF-1 which I'm not sure what this is. My print style is PDF-Space Information in dgnlib file attached.
Any help would be appreciated...

What is MicroStation cE U13? Do you have a pltcfg file I can review?
So, what option does the creation of levels. I have dozens of plot drivers and styles I need to bring over from V8i. I can't re-develop all of them. What command line tells Microstation to create the Level list? If you don't know the command line where is it in the interface??
I have <PDFEnableOptionalContent>0</PDFEnableOptionalContent> set and I'm still not getting a layered PDF.
Can you attach a PDF version that will create levels so I can review against mine?

Hi Mark,

I am able to create PDF with layers using MicroStation cE U13 without any problem (but no detail check, just verify some levels are there ;-), so I guess your pltcfg is configured incorrectly.

Why do you use this option? My feeling from this information:

Set PDF > Driver Properties > Enable Optional Content to On and reload the driver.
In xml file it's equivalent
<PDFEnableOptionalContent>0</PDFEnableOptionalContent>
... yes, enable is 0, disable is 1. Do no try understand why it works this way ;-)
