Hi! Thanks for the tutorial it was very helpful. I use AutoCAD Architecture and I have a problem of printing into pdf especially when I have to show transparency of some of the Hatches that I use as shadows in the elevations. After setting up the layout (dwg to pdf) and adjusting the scale I do ' Ctrl + P ' and my PC starts freezing and it takes a lot of time to make me a PDF file and when the PDF is ready it is always so so heavy (like 40 MB even though its a simple elevation with 5 transparent hatches and the quality is normal '100' :') ). Is there a way to fix it? :'( If I export to PDF as you did in the tutorial it shows the hatches in the raster and not in vectors.

in the later stage of editing your plan, you'll find that you need the layers individually to make specific edits on them. for example if you need to change the lineweight of wall only, you'll struggle selecting the wall lines on photoshop bcs it has merged with all other lines

Hi .this is a question for anyone doing architecture. I'm going to college next year and I love construction and sketching all aspects of construction. I want to choose a career that I can balance my sporting life with . If I'm in college next year do you think based on your own experience that you could spend about 3 hours of for sport twice a week or three times a week thanks

I think there would definitely be a time crunch for managing both. That said I do have a friend who is into football teams for last 3 years but she is the most organised and disciplined person in our college and sports always gets second priority due to time constraints. Being an architecture student, managing your own basic health itself is quite a neverending ambitious task.. So maybe talk to seniors from the college you wish to apply and take in their views or schedule. Maybe that can help. Good luck!
