Pdfcreator and plot option issue

Max Niark

Hi Community

I'm a designer on Allegro Design PCB 17.4. I've an issue with the option " plot" . 

I need to export PDF file of my job, since long time my process is to use "PDF creator" and plot option for export my design to PDF, on 17.2 this is work very good, but not on 17.4. 

The scaling is not automatic ... my sheet is A2 plot, and when i select A2 scale for a better export ( fit to page) nothing happend .. the scale is setup on A4, and it's impossible to change and register the setup .. the problem is the same for the page orientation ( vertically or horiizontaly) the setup is always on vertically ... . i had change all of setup, everywhere ... 


i need your help bro ! :)

    Try the File - Export - PDF, you should get a better result with this.

    Ok make sure you are running the latest version. If you go to Help - About you'll see the version number. The latest is 17.4-2019 S017. You can get that from Download Manager or from http://support.cadence.com. I believe the plotting issue was fixed in a hotfix.
