Converting to PDF

Try setting your PDF "Printer" as the "default printer". It works with a similar issue for Primavera Suretrak.

hello all,

you should be carefull when using MS Project 2007: the original release is plenty of bugs; be sure to use the Service Pack 1

Hello!



I also have this issue with MSP07 and PDFCreator.

We fixed part of the issue by trying to change the ’Print Quality" in the Advanced Options of PDFCreator. It seems to work.



I have another issue with MSP07 when using Group. On the screen it is ok, but when you print (in print preview too) there are colors only for groups names, no more color vertically.

Hi Andrew,



There’s a known problem when printing to PDF from 2k7. I believe it’s to do with printer tolerances and a 3D Bars option in MS Project.



If you uncheck the ’bars and shapes in gantt view in 3D’ option (Tools > Options > View) then it overcomes this issue.



Not sure if this is the cause of your problem, but it might be worth giving it a shot.



Regards,

Apart from the obvious - I have found that the more amended views you have the bigger the file - try to reduce all the views, graphics etc and file save as this sometimes reduces the file size. I would also add that printing to pdf from large file sizes has never been a problem for me (upto 150MB)



Good Luck



Andrew

Hi andrew



When printing to PDF - check in the print properties section - What resolution are you printing at



I usulaly print at 300dpi - the higher the dpi, the bigger the file size



Try reducing the resolution (to an acceptable reading level)

I agree with Colin.



The problem seems to be with the pdf converter. Try converting Word, Powerpoint files to pdf & check if it’s the same case. Also the problem can arise if your file size is too big.



The best might be to reinstall the pdf converter.



Kind regards.

Dear all,



PDF 995 is a free software on the web. I use this for all programme print-outs in PDF.

Check if you can read them on another machine - if so it may be the reader.



The last time I had a problem with the pdf reader, I uninstalled adobe then re-installed it.



Hope this helps

I use primopdf and I did not find any problem.



primopdf is a free download in the internet.
