In principle, when creating a layout you want then to go to Print (Cmd+P) and in the dialog you can then choose to create a pdf.
Hi John -
I just exported a simple file and that seems to work fine. Make sure to enable Locked Objects
in the Visibility
section:
-wim
I found the same problem.
From a DetailView on a Layout, hatches on locked layers aren’t exported to PDF, whether via Export or Cmd+P. The ‘Locked Objects’ Visibility setting makes no difference.
From a model space view, or a hatch directly on a Layout not in a DetailView, the ‘Locked Objects’ setting works for Cmd+P, but not for Export.
(I prefer the interface and options in Export to PDF to be better than Cmd+P, it looks like someone put more thought into it.)
