Updated to the new version, but still no luck in printing or pdf export being usable at all for me on Mac. Everything still upside down and out of place

A post was split to a new topic: Multipage Rhino PDF always raster
That’s good to hear! Some of my issues were solved with this update but I’m still having some odd issues when printing with viewports/details showing different from the end result.
I think it’s somehow a conflict with the fact that the content is being generated with Grasshopper but I cannot pin point it. And it prints fine in R7.

This thread is really becoming a nightmare. I’m going to try and split threads out into separate posts as this has become too difficult to track.
In the meantime, please start new posts for printing issues instead of tacking things on here. This will be easier for everyone to track and fix. Thanks
Hi @Joshua_Beale ,
Sorry for the issue.
You will need to Print Raster on the Rhino 8 Mac to workaround the “upside down” bug.
A fix for this is in the works:
RH-76966- Layout-Print-Flips-on-Mac-if-using-Vector
We will let you know here when a fix has been testing and is in a build.
Thanks for letting us know.
Sincerely,
Mary Ann Fugier
Hi @tay.othman,
Sorry for the delay.
Thank you for reporting this and attaching the file.
We have this issue logged as RH-78703/Linetype-Width-and-Pattern-Scale-Incorrect-on-Layout
You will be notified here when there is a fix.
Let us know if you see anything else that is not working as you expect.
Sincerely,

Hi hopefully this is related 7 to 8 issue, with annotation styles and PDF prints.
Can’t seem to scale the annotation to print as seen view without shrinking the text to nothing.
having to open in 7 to print
Hi @Almost_Everything,
I have been using this a lot, and I have not seen any issues here with the expected behavior.
But here are the Rhino annotation scaling rules that determine your dimension and text size on the model and layout:
-
If model space scaling On, it is controlled in the Annotation style here.
-
If you want the model scale on the layout, to be used on the Layout, uncheeck “Use Layout space scaling.”
-
Finally if Layout space scaling is enabled, the Annotation Style values will be applied 1:1 on the Layout or in the detail.
This is the magic, because details of various scale, will have dimensions scale to be 1:1 on the layout.
Feel free to email me the file. Tech@mcneel.com Attn: Mary and include the link to this forum thread.
Sincerely,
Mary Ann Fugier
Thank you thank you thank you, that seems to have solved it by toggling those options!
@Almost_Everything, this is great news.
Complicated at first look, but powerful at the same time.
The “rules” should help you achieve annotation predictability or “zen” in your model.
If you run into a file that does not behave like you expect, please send it along.
Thanks for the follow-up.
Sincerely,
Mary Ann Fugier
Probably asking a lot, but it would sure be nice if McNeel would publish a tutorial on settings for printing. It seems we’ve lost something going to version 8.
24 hrs in a day, my friend.
On the list, and hope to have it sometime soon.
@Joe4 Take a look at this thread.
Many tutorials have already been done that include modeling and then instruction on the layout feature.
But having the linetype settings above in this thread should be helpful to many.
Best,
