Hello everyone,
I have been working with point clouds for a few years now. At my company we create 2D drawings directly from the points using AutoCAD and Plant 3D. My normal workflow would be to simply create a viewport in paperspace and clip the point cloud down to what I need it to be and then plot. This has worked for us ever since I started doing it. But for some reason in the past few weeks this option has not been working. It is quite troublesome for us because we cannot produce drawings in the same way we have been and it would take quite a bit of time to go back and recreate the drawings in 2D. I was wondering if anyone has had this issue particularly when plotting to pdf.
Any information would be greatly appreciated
The plots always show up correctly in the plot preview but when I open the pdf afterwards, the points disappear.
