For some reason when I save the rhino fils as PDF the model doesn’t show. It shows in the viewport when I’m saving it but when I open the file the model is not showing. I tried changing the PDF and rhino setting but nothing seems to work.
This is how the PDF looks like…
This is the model shown in the viewport…
Can you paste your SystemInfo here please? (type SystemInfo in the command line)

Macbook air on Catalina. I’ll defer to people with more experience in the older macOS updates, there might be a 7.12 build that could help here.
Should I download the latest Rhino update? Would that help? I don’t seem to understand the issue exactly
Yes, update to the latest. Like i said, i’m not familiar with the particulars of Catalina but having the most recent build is typically the way to go.
Here’s another option for getting a pdf out, use the Rhino PDF exporter (and not the MacOS exporter). On Mac, currently this is done by using Export or ExportAll and then exporting to the PDF format.
Hello - is the Print color for those objects (or their layers) what you expect?
