OrCAD PCB Designer PDF Export issue

jatins
jatins over 3 years ago

Hi

I am exporting Assembly drawing of my PCB. The mounting holes location i am seeing in the .brd file is correct. that is the Package GEOMETRY>Assembly Top of Mounting Holes on PCB are intersecting Board Outline of PCB as shown below, where Pink boundary is Board outline:

But after exporting PDF, this is what i am getting:

As shown above, the Mounting Hole is not intersecting the Board Outline in the exported pdf. I have checked that i am exporting the same properties in PDF as shown in board file.

Even tried, Global visibility to check if there is anything i am missing.

Only 2 of the 3 holes are showing this behavior. These 2 holes with fault placement are placed using Polar placement.
