Plot file (pdf) with embedded text

archive
archive over 17 years ago

Hi all,

V15.7 -
Need to get a top/bottom assembly with searchable text in .pdf format

Can anyone explain the exact sequence I need to set this up? I've tried the Sourcelink solution, and it's still not giving me searchable/editable text. Anyone? What am I not doing right?

Spent 4 hours so far trying to set this up, changing settings and different printer setups.

Thanks in advance.
Mitch
