I send my plans to a copy shop for ArchD and E1 plan sets.  Never had a conversion problem until recently, when the copy shop notified me they had to use a plotter because the file didn't convert to a PDF. Its only been with the Arch E1 size paper.

 

Anyone else experience this?

Thanks,Mike

I convert all my drawings to PDF prior to sending to anyone, ie copy shops,sub contractors, owners.

If you need a PDF converter, Cute (free) is easy to use, treat it just like a printer

Export the files through reView - I have found the batch export helpful when working with older drawings that still use multi-draw.  All of my current drawings use plan sets though.

Thanks Chuck...SP converts my Multi-Drawings

 

Thanks Tim.

I haven't taken the time to switch to Plan Sets.  With interest rates on the rise, I may have some additional time in the future.
