Why is printing not working like I expect it to?

Here are some reasons that printing might not work like you expect it to:

  • You cannot change the color settings if printing to PDF.

  • All displayed markups are automatically printed.

  • Watermarks and labels (banners) configured in the Desktop Client are not printed.

  • If you print a master file, all of its reference files print too.

  • When using a tablet or other mobile device, printing might not work.

  • If you are printing without viewing the file and an alternate rendition exists, the alternate rendition is printed. You might need to regenerate the alternate rendition to get the latest markups included.
