Hi,
when printing to PDF with the Bentley Driver red lines on the dgn come out blue on the PDF, they come out red when switching to the windows driver, but would like to use the Bentley driver as quality is usually better and the company I.T. would prefer it, any suggestions please. If it involves edits to files I would appreciate the info which I can pass onto the IT dept. Thanks.
Dave.
Please confirm the Product and version being used
I suspect that the PDF driver your using has been modified and is calling a PenTable that is changing the color or the Color Maps have been applied
With the PDF.pltcfg loaded on the Print Dialog select File > Edit Print Driver Configuration File.
On Base Properties tabs General section is the Default Pen Table are there any entries against these areas, by default they would be blank.
Are there any mappings for color defined? see Color Maps Tab
If either of the above are set, then try using an out of the box PDF.pltcfg file or create a new one removing these items.
(For MicroStation CONNECT Edition these can be found here C:\Program Files\Bentley\MicroStation CONNECT Edition\MicroStation\Default\pltcfg\)

Yes, unless you are using Level Symbology, your colors will not change using the default pdf print driver, attached8078.pdf.pltcfg

Hi, thanks for the answers, much appreciated. I am passing on the info as I am using Bentley through a virtual workstation so don't have the necessary permissions.
