Stuck.

Vector features with labeling (most are point data), overtop an elevation grid.

Export to PDF and no labels.

Turned off elevation grid thinking annotation hidden, but still no labels in PDF.

Tried embedding, but no luck.

Thought there was a way to export labels as seperate layer as a way of bringing them into PDF, but can't find.

    Steve,

    Unfortunately, the 3rd party library we use to create the 3D PDF data does not support text directly. There are a couple of ways we might be able to work around this limitation: represent text in bitmap images (may be OK in some cases, but not scalable), or draw text as vector features (a more significant development effort, but probably the better solution). I have created an enhancement request (ticket #14496) to possibly include this in a future release.
  • I have the same issue can you help me please?
