So it seems to be an Autodesk/Adobe compatibility. Have given the same drawing to a colleague using a different CAD package (BricCAD Pro) and he has no issue printing to the Adobe Printer with cropped viewports. ![]() Have tried Autodesk support and forums, only anwer I am getting is it is an Adobe issue and I should use the built in Autodesk PDF plotter. When I try to print the cropped viewport same drawing it eventually hangs or freezes. ![]() Same drawing if I have a standard viewport on one page and a cropped viewport on another, the standard viewport prints quick and easy without an issue. The larger the AutoCAD drawing the bigger the problem is. What I have found in the last few AutoCAD (or is it Adobe) updates is when I crop a drawing within a viewport into an odd shape, rather than the standard square viewport, the cropped viewport/page will not print (it is either creating a huge file and eventually hangs or freezes). OR.move the viewport to layer DEFPOINTS (it sounds like you just renamed layer 'viewport' to 'defpoints' - DON'T do that AutoCAD automatically creates a DEFPOINTS layer with special properties when you use associative dimensions). The quality and workability of the PDF produced is far superior than the AutoCAD built in PDF printers. Turn off the layer in which the viewport border resides. ![]() I have been using Adobe Acrobat DC (printer) to print AutoCAD files for the past 10 years.
