Are there any other solutions, because this method means I still have to flatten the PDF's. Is there a method of making the PDF's print quicker or eliminating the flattening issue? I read someone that you can perform the flattening first and save the PDF so it prints right away. The PDF file has dropped in size by half, and the flattening isn't such an issue, but I have a higher spec laptop than my colleagues. What is the best solution? I have reduced the DPI to its minimum setting, merged the hatches into as few hatches as possible and tried printing in as low a quality as possible. ![]() ![]() ![]() Normally I would plot from CAD, but this isn't particularly helpful as we need to send the drawing the clients as PDF, and some of our engineers can't use CAD. In the real world of CAD in the workplace, each company usually has their own individual company standards, which makes it difficult to know what is the right way, or the best way, to set these up. I have a 636KB PDF that takes a long time to print. Plot styles are often a subject of confusion for AutoCAD users. This makes the transparent objects images that resemble the transparent hatches. ![]() So my understanding of the issue is that Adobe has to "flatten" the transparent objects in the PDF's to be able to print.
