Problem exporting PDF in landscape mode

I am trying to export a PDF file in landscape mode, using ARCH C or ARCH D page size. Regardless of the orientation in Print Setup or Export PDF (Portrait, Landscape, or Automatic) it keeps coming out portrait. Any Ideas? Could my choice of printer in Print Setup be affecting it? I notice that choosing a different printer I get different paper size choices. I was able to export one to tabloid size (11x17) and it came out landscape.

I'm using v12.02, build time May 12 2011 00:52:07

    It looks like the Portrait and Landscape definitions of the ARCH paper sizes were swapped. I have placed a new build at http://www.globalmapper.com/global_mapper12.zip with this fixed for you to try. Simply download that file and extract the contents into your existing v12.xx installation folder to give it a try. If you are using the 64-bit v12 version there is a new build at http://www.globalmapper.com/global_mapper12_64bit.zip .

    Let me know if I can be of further assistance.

    Thanks,

    GM12 64 bit tells me PDF export is not supported in 64-bit mode. Is that correct, or am I not up to date on something?

    That's correct we are still waiting on a 64-bit version of the PDF library that we use. You can use the 32-bit version of Global Mapper on the same machine though to get PDF export.

    Your fix did the trick, it's coming out landscape now. It's a big map with NED data on it so it took a while to render. Thanks! Now I can see another issue, I will post to another thread since it is unrelated (I think) and I haven't looked for an answer already out there.

    Thanks again
