    Hi everyone,

    I need some help. I am a network admin so forgive me for not knowing
    SolidWorks too well.

    I have a user that has SolidWorks 2006 with SP 4.1. He uses the save
    as function to create a PDF file of one of his drawings. When he opens
    Acrobat reader 7.0 and tries to print it, he gets the error "This
    document could not be printed." with the only option being "OK" and it
    doesn't print.

    However, we have an application on our network called deskPDF. This is
    a printr in a sense. When he just makes his regular drawing and then
    uses deskPDF to create the PDF file, Acrobat can print it just fine.

    Does anyone have any ideas on this? Thank you in advance.
    John

  2. We had trouble with our KIP plotter choking on a PDF file created with SW
    2006 SP4.1 if I did a Save-as PDF. The only solution that we have found so
    far is to choose PDF from the printer selection box, rather than the save-as
    PDF. You might try that.
