Layout saving to PDF, documents opening upside down?

Working on some basic layouts today, when I open up the print window and select either save as pdf, or open in preview the page is upside down ?? Anyone else experiencing this, cheers

No.
Max.

Still happening today whilst I’m creating PDF spec sheets

more saving PDF’s today, still saving upside down ?

Please provide a copy of your model so we can duplicate what you are seeing. Thanks.

@marlin Hi Marlin its happened on many files over the last few days, attached is one of the files, cheers

tested with 5.3 and pdf is saved as expected.

I saved your layout as a PDF and it is right side up for me. I am running Rhino 5.2.3.

What is your printer? Does this behave differently if you use a different printer?

What are your Rhino settings? Rhinoceros > About Rhinoceros > More Info… > Copy to clipboard and paste result here.

That’s quite a list of HP printer driver files. Can you try your test on another Mac that does not have these HP files installed? We’ve seen layout printing issues in the past when HP drivers were installed.

@marlin Marlin I have no idea what all those driver files are, haha, I only have one HP printer, this saving issue has only just started in the last few days though, I’m afraid I only have this machine, how would i go about removing all those driver files btw ? and is that causing the problem, ?

@marlin update, over the weekend I installed the new Sierra OSX, was saving some more PDF’s today and they saved and opened in preview with no problems, the right way round ! :slight_smile:
