Does anyone have anything to offer about PDF quality on Revit projects? I have a very strange thing happening here. Some of the beams in plan view look very grainy or pixelated, some don't. In many cases, there are beams side by side that are the same member size, same slope - virtually identical - yet they look different on the PDF.
I am using Revit Structure 2012 and Abobe Acrobat or Primo PDF. Same problem occurs with either program. I have tried the dpi settings, raster, vector, everything I can and the prints look like virtual crap.

If an element is at an angle, it will often become pixalated. Also if it is a different color from black.

So we can't have sloping beams or they will look horrible? I was afraid of that. However, I have some sloping beams that look just fine - and every beam is black.

If you are forced into raster printing because of a shaded object, you have this problem with angled objects. It is not a Revit issue. It is a PDF issue. See if you can print vector instead of raster.
If you are in a plan view and the beam is angled vertically, then this is not your issue. The angled problem is angled in plan. I would check and make sure their are no over-rides on this element in both by element or phase.

Yeah. The problem is that the PDF's look really bad and I have tried for years really to solve these problems to no avail. Thanks for the help, but I think Autodesk needs to address this one. I can make PDF's from AutoCAD all day long with no problems ever, but with Revit I get problems every time.
