PDF's have thin white lines in the fills.

It is not like they don't know about the issue.  Not really sure why the feel so inclined not to fix it.

If you can't view your PDF in Adobe Reader or Adobe Acrobat then I think there is something wrong with the PDF.

 

 

I suppose you could always send it in to tech support again like they requested. :wacko:

They do look like the Terrain's geometry Lines (Triangles) , though I have no idea why you are seeing them ...and have no way to test sorry.

 

Did you try a different PDF Printer?

 

Edit : I downloaded the PDF CS linked to above and the bad Lines were barely visible after reprinting the PDF to BullZip PDF Printer ...but still there..... I am surprised this is back after 2-3 yrs , though personally I have not noticed it...... not macOS thing as CS has Windows....

This also have been a major issue for me for years now. If you print to PDF and then import that file to let's say photoshop, then if you leave the anti-aliased setting ticked, you will see these lines and they are sometimes pretty bad. If you un-tick the anti-aliased setting, then these lines will disappear but you will get all the text looking rough and not smoothed at all. I have not found a workaround for this problem yet, and unfortunately the X13 did not fixed this issue also....

It only happens for me when printing directly from a view in plan, sent to layout eliminates the issue. Both images using built in PDF printer in X12.

This did not work for me unfortunately. Printed one plan from the normal view and another one sent to layout both with built in PDF printer, and still got the same lines everywhere on my color fills.

Odd, wonder why not for me? maybe post the layout and plan? I tried this in both vector and standard of ortho overview and tried at two scales

I think it’s because you are opening it in a non-Adobe product.  From what I’ve been able to gather, it seems like it’s mostly (if not only) a problem with Adobe software.

Mmm, could be. I tried in both Bluebeam and TurboPDF (which is Foxit) and both are full pdf programs, not just readers.

I played a bit more and am leaning that way too ......Adobe Reader is Bad , but open it in Chrome or FireFox for example and they aren't seen....

 

I was playing with this file ( not mine) from the other Thread.....  16016_site.pdf

When you choose in Adobe Acrobat - Edit - Preferences - Page Display - and untick "smooth line art" the thin lines on the area fill disappear. If I leave it on, it appears. But me personally, use the PDF straight from Chief Architect and open in Photoshop for some design work, and the lines are there, unless I untick the anti-aliasing option which makes the text look rough and not smooth... also tried it in Chrome browser, and same lines appear, so I think the problem is still on the Chief side, the way it writes the PDF somehow....

Strangely that makes it worst/darker here......
