Hi,

I have noticed quite a difference in output quality between exporting to PDF and printing and then selecting output to PDF from the printing options on OSX versions.

I obtain the best quality using export from 2.1.3 (bad quality from printing to PDF)
From 2.2.0. the export to PDF has the same bad quality, but printing to PDF is better ...
Not everything is printed from the export to PDF, whereas from they print correctly from a direct print.

For now I make my drawings in 2.2.0. but I have to use 2.1.3. to export to PDF ... ;-)

Maybe I'm missing something since I'm new to LibreCAD.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

If I can help in providing other information, please let me know.

Thank you in advance,

Francis
