TBlackwell11 Posted June 2 Share Posted June 2 I must have altered an internal setting somewhere because once I PDF my layout, the dimension lines and measurements seem to be bolded/are appearing thicker in lineweight than in layout planview/normal. Can anyone advise how to revert back to normal? Thank you!! Cheif X17 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DBCooper Posted June 2 Share Posted June 2 Does turning on the display of line weights in layout make a difference? If it does, then the problem could be the line weight that you are using for the dimension lines is too heavy?. Check the layer settings for the layer set you are using for that view. If it doesn't affect it, then it might be a problem with pdf driver you are using? Could try using a different one to see if it makes a difference.

TBlackwell11 Posted June 3 Author Share Posted June 3 I'm still not sure. I should say, this only began happening recently, and it's only in the color fill version: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SHCanada2 Posted June 3 Share Posted June 3 are you sending both of those to layout, or are you copying the layout box and relinking for the one on the right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DBCooper Posted June 3 Share Posted June 3 If you post your plan and layout, someone will probably be able to figure it out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VHampton Posted June 4 Share Posted June 4 ...looks like the line weight default for detail work is too heavy. As per DB... change the default. Select the dimension string, right click, and see what it's set for. Example... Kitchen and Bath Defaults are far different than dimension strings for plan views. When you right click on the string, the dialogue box will let you know what layer set is being used. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TBlackwell11 Posted June 4 Author Share Posted June 4 Hi everyone, Thanks for trying to help on this, So that screenshot is from the PDF, I think I may have selected something strange at some point in dimensions, or in the dialogue box that gives options for sending to layout. It all appears normal in plan view, and in layout view once sent there. But when I PDF the layout, the color fill versions of section views sent to layout appear bolded I've attached the versions: plan view, layout view, then PDF Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TBlackwell11 Posted June 4 Author Share Posted June 4 Also, It only happens for anything sent in color fill, when sent as plot lines the problem goes away. But I used to not have this issue with color fill. Is there an internal dialogue box I need to find to alter plot lines color fill settings?
