In BricsCAD 26, there's a problem with the "print_as_pdf.pc3" PDF file. The saved file doesn't work on another computer (it can't recognize paper sizes). Has anyone else had this problem? The file worked in older versions of the program.

    Can you share "print_as_pdf.pc3"? I mean here?

    If you set up some custom paper sizes, you also need to copy the file Print As PDF.pmp.

    Dodaję w załączeniu plik który próbuję przenieść i wczytać na innym komputerze (zmieniłem rozszerzenie z .pmp na .txt aby dodać go jako załącznik na forum). Nie widzi go - oczywiście pamiętam o skopiowaniu go i dodaniu w oknie papierów

    I unpacked the PMP structure and it is actually just zlib-compressed text data.

    See attached file. The custom paper sizes are stored there, together with references such as:

    C:\Users...\PlotConfig\PMP\Print As PDF2.pmp

    This confirms Lyubov's statement: copying only the PC3 is not sufficient when custom paper sizes are involved.

    The internal structure is more transparent than it first appears once decompressed.

    Could you please attach the "print_as_pdf.pc3" also? I can use your pmp file in V26.2.04, I didn't replace the default file, but attach your file by 'Attach' button. Which version exactly do you use?
