Hi all,

Not often that I would use this forum (hopefully the right area for this issue) as I can normally find work arounds but this one has me beaten.

I'm using Windows XP Pro SP2 with EasyPC v12.0.4

I've created a board (no schematic as its quite a simple design) and have managed to get all the outputs I need - except that to send this to a client needs a pdf document.

However the quality of the pdf is very poor i.e. no drill holes, tracks overlay the pads and is generally not a way to show artwork to a client! The same settings print out OK otherwise except I cannot change the background either.

Has anyone else had this issue? Is it me?

Any suggestions welcome!

Roger B

I've sent you an interim patch which should address these issues.
If there are things still going wrong, please drop me an email.

I've never actually used the PDF creation facility, sorry Peter! Long before EPC had it built in, I used the open source PDF Creator:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/pdfcreator/

It just installs as a printer, and you select it when you print to Widows as usual.
