I am using a MacBook Pro with ViaCAD Pro 11. I created a 2d drawing of a pneumatic circuit for my customer. They asked for the drawing in AutoCAD 13 and pdf. I am able to export the drawing to AutoCAD 13. But when I save as a pdf i have a blank page. Anyone having an issue like this?

I included a sample drawing.

Selected all and EXPORTED as 3DPDF, not really a great output.

To save as a pdf you need to set it up to print, then instead of printing save as a pdf.

Thank you for the replies, I appreciate it. I know how to print and save as a pdf. When I do these steps in the preview window the screen is blank. So when I save the document as a pdf file I end up saving a blank document. Not sure if there is a bug in ViaCAD pro11 or maybe a printer driver error. Other documents print from other programs print without errors.

I'm working in ViaCAD V11. If you are getting a blank document then you need to set it up in Page Layout.
