Allegro - Export - PDF - How to make objects like clines, pads, and vias looks opaque/solid in PDF viewer

VKPA

Exported pdf file from Allegro - OrCAD 17.4                                                                                                           

  

Expected PDF file something like this (I have used GC-Prevue Gerber viewer tool)

Thanks

    User preferences - sometimes a magical box. Many things can be done by setting up some parameters. Is there any document which details each of the parameters with an example?

    Try the Info button in the User Preferences form. This should give you an idea what each variable does.
