    I'm using LDT 2005 and Adobe 6.0 Pro and when I try to create a PDF from paper space with viewports in them it crops about 3 inches off one side of the drawing, and I've played with every setting I could find and nothing works. but I have a layout with no viewports and it makes a PDF just fine. Please Help

    What Plot Driver are you using?

    Are you Centering Your plot?
    If you are defining your Plot Area via Extents, try using the Window selection method instead. This will allow you select the exact plot area you want.

    If the above does not help, make sure you are selecting the correct paper size.

    If none of those work, try using the 'Scaled-to-Fit' Plot scale.
    When I used to create PDFs using one of the HP Postscript Plot drivers, I always had to use the 'Scaled-to-Fit' Plot scale or my PDF would be cropped just like yours.

    Let us know if that helps or not,

    Regards,
