FDOT Connect/ORD User here. I am trying to do plan over plan sheets, and on of my aerial raster references is printing at the set transparency, and the other is not. It appears as it should in CADD, but not in PDF. Any ideas why or how to fix??? Thanks!
Has this issue been resolved yet? We are wanting to use ORD to undertake our drawing production, and it is something as trivial as this which is stopping us which is disappointing.
Please note, I have put a ticket into Bentley.
I am having the exact same issue using the Iowa DOT setup. I am attempting to print plan/plan sheets. Within the ORD sheet model the transparency is displayed correctly in both views. However, when the sheet is printed, the aerial raster transparency appears as it should in the top plan view but not the bottom.
I tried Eddie's solution of turning off 3D levels. This worked in fixing the aerial raster transparency issue, but it not considered an optimal solution because there is frequent need to print 3D elements.
Setting the print to Rasterized seemed to fix the issue of aerial raster transparency but creates a different set of issues, as a rasterized print fouls up the display of so many elements. It is disappointing that ORD has so many bugs like this than inhibit efficient plan production.
Just found something in the settings when printing individual sheets. I checked the box that says "Rasterized." It seems to work this way but I am not sure where to find this setting in the print organizer.
Start at the Default and make sure it's carried through to the Drawing and Sheet Models.

Eddie, are we talking in the default, drawing, or sheet model?
