Text doesn't appear on PDF export

Text doesn’t appear when I select a 2d drawing and export it as a PDF. It does appear in the preview window like it should when I’m half-way through the process but it doesn’t show when I open the PDF I just made.

If you print to Raster it will work.
Text only fails when using the Vector option.
I recently tested the fix for this problem.
It will show up in an upcoming service release update.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

It works properly using the Print command too.
It’s only Export using Vector.

Thanks for the reply. I unfortunately need the vector so I’ll just add the text in manually.

You can try the Service Release Candidate. I think the fix is in it.

I’ll try that. I’m on a mac version and can’t even download the raster output. It freezes rhino fully.

Just found out how to update and the issue is not fixed. It seems that I can’t fully export as a vector or a raster on a mac right now.

I can send you a link to a in-house 7.9 build to check if you want.

that would be amazing!! Mine says that 7.7 is the most up-to-date version.

That is the current Service Release, not the current Service Release Candidate.
You can change it in Preferences > General > Updates, update frequency, and then Check Now.

I’m comfortable with the SRC. The in-house builds are a bit more risky.

Got it. Thank you. Unfortunately, nothing’s changed for me with this update.

7.9 should be the new Release Candidate next week when 7.8 is released.
Check back on Wednesday or Thursday if the SRC doesn’t get it for you automatically.

OK. Thank you.

I am having the same issue, only works as raster. I am also getting odd lines through some text with backgrounds applied?

Hi Bruce -
Please provide the output of the Rhino SystemInfo command as well as a simplified 3dm file that shows this behavior on your system.
