Hello, I have finally updated to rhino 6 for Mac, and have come across an issue which I trust someone can help me resolve. When printing to PDF, all my crvs become terribly distorted. I never had any issue with rhino 5 doing this, so I assume this should not be too hard to resolve? here attached …

We were delayed in releasing the latest SR20 release candidate by one day. A new release candidate was just made available about an hour ago.

Can you run SystemInfo in Rhino and post the results here?

Here we go… Rhino 6 SR18 2019-9-23 (Public Build, 6.18.19266.13352, Git hash:master @ 3d84f88dec99b2f4e8b7497e739ed2adc2ba8ef6) License type: Educational, build 2019-09-23 License details: Stand-Alone Apple Intel 64-bit macOS Version 10.14.6 (Build 18G95) (Physical RAM: 32Gb) Mac Model Identifi…

Well, not a Mac expert, but everything looks OK and up to date… I wonder if the Keyshot plug-in could be causing some trouble…?

I can confirm I’ve had both distorted vector printing issues and the red PDF issue on my 2019 mbp with i9 and vega 20. I’ve never installed any plugins. Let me know if my system info would be helpful and I’ll send it later today.

HI, did you ever manage to resolve these issues? in particular the printing to PDF, and being able to get clean crvs? or has anyone else managed to resolve or can help here?.. It seems like a bad oversight if this is unable to be resolved.

Hi Andrew, I haven’t found a solution to printing clean curves. I don’t have any printer drivers on my computer though, so I’m not sure if that affects how curves are printed. It’s agree that it’s a pretty big issue. After printing a full size architectural set last week i was disappointed with how…

The entire layout/printing seems still very immature. We’ve consistently had problems getting the right scale. For the curve-distortions: Can you try to change your tolerance settings (e.g. from 0.01 to 1) and see if this helps? We’ve also been “more successful” using the workaround “export selec…

I tried changing the layout and model space tolerance from .001 to .1 but it didn’t have any effect. See screenshots below… [1%20Tolerance] [001%20Tolerance]
