PDF export problems with GM17

hennie

Hi,
I am using Global Mapper v17.1.2 (b032116) [64-bit] - REGISTERED.
When exporting to PDF, I get a blank file.
Screen captures attached.

Please help!
Kind regards,
Hennie

Why don't you use the Map Layout Editor (available in your version) in Tools ? 
Since your layout suits you go to File (of Layout Editor Window) --> Export to geospatial PDF (or Print file, and use a PDF creator!)

Hello,

I concur with @Marie that you should use the Map Layout Editor to produce geospatial PDF files.  

With respect to your empty PDF, your screen capture indicates that you are exporting to a fixed scale of 1:1000.  Your main view is at a scale of 1:181600. I expect that the problem is that your PDF is effectively zoomed into an area on your map that has no data.

I suggest that you try exporting to PDF by bounds (Export Bounds tab) rather than scale.

Cheers,

Bob

Thanks both of you! Problem was indeed the scale of 1:000.
