OrCAD 16.5 PDF export stop working properly.

Firas Abdel Ghani

Hi Everyone,

I succeeded to export PDF according to a tutorial that I saw on the internet. 
today I have encountered a situation where I generate a new PDF for the same design, but when clicking left click on some components I cant see their description, while previously on the old version, everything was fine.

here is an example:
on old version of the PDF, I could click on the H2 and see the description, while in the new one, it doesn't work. but H1 alone works in the new PDF.

I'm sharing the two pdfs: NEW - not working properly, and Old - Working properly, in addition to the design files. 


ETC - PWL12 - NEW (not working proberly).pdf

ETC - PWL12 - old (working proberly).pdf

ET.C - POWL12.zip
