Line weights lost when flattening?
I found what I thought was a good way of highlighting completed work using a 8 point wide line with “highlight selected. When I flattened the file before sending it to my client I noticed that the line weights appear to have been lost in the flattening process.
Has anyone had this issue before? I figure I can draw a highlighted box and flatten that as a work around, but it’s double the clicks…

I think you have your line thickness turned off on the PDF. Once you flatten the markups, those are considered part of the pdf content and the line weights are turned off. Turn the line weights back on and they should display correctly.

That did the trick @troydegroot ! Thank you!
In case others don’t know what Troy is talking about there is a setting in the “View” menu that allows you to “Disable Line Weights”. This can be very useful when reviewing a drawing, but doesn’t help when you are trying to display a markup on a flattened drawing…

Thanks for adding this @david-cutler it’s a huge help to the group, I appreciate the time it took. I was answering on my phone from vacation so I wasn’t able to add screenshots. 😂
