Hi there

Hope you are doing well and sorry for the trouble. As described on converting dwg to pdf some text and background areas invert.

Would you mind sharing the workflow/steps you are doing to create the PDF foem the drawing document? Please try to create the PDF via Adobe Acrobat pro DC and see if that helps.

For more info please check the help page https://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/using/creating-simple-pdfs-acrobat.html

Is this an issue with a particular file or with the other files as well? Please try with a different file and check. If its a file specific issue please share the file with us for testing.

Also make sure you have the latest version 21.07.20099 installed. Go to Help > Check for updates and reboot the computer once.

Regards

While in Autodesk I ckicked export, PDF, choose where I want file located, save.

I tryed to do it thru my Adobe DC pro

Clicked file, create, PDF from file, file I wanted converted, open, ok

then a box comes up saying "Conversion of AutoCAD files to PDF has been disabled. Click 'Learn More' for steps to enable this feture. When I click Learn More and click web lenk in step 2 it says download is no longer available.

I've also tryed going to my Registry Editor and I clicked HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\(Wow6432Node)\Adobe\Adobe Acobat\DC but once I get that far there is no FeatureState to click on.

Hi there

The FeatureState key is not present by default, you have to create the key first.

Once you go to Registry editor and click HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\(Wow6432Node)\Adobe\Adobe Acobat\DC

1. Right click on the DC folder icon > New > Key and name it FeatureState

2. Right click on FeatureState key > New > DWORD 32 Bit Value

3. Name the new value key asbEnableODAWorkflow and rigkt click on it > Modify > Set value to 1
