Maintaining markup line thicknesses when flattening markups
Is there a way to maintain markup line thicknesses when flattening markups? I have some sketches that I’d like to share with some trade partners, but I’d like to flatten the markups before I distribute the file. Problem is that the line-weights all appear to be reduced to 1 PT when I flatten the markups.
At this point the best I’ve come up with is to print the PDF to a new PDF. This flattens the markup while maintaining the line weights – but appears to take what was a vector PDF and turn it into a raster PDF, which I’m not thrilled with.
Any suggestions? Perhaps a setting that I’m missing?

If you have your line weights disabled, when you flatten your markups the line weights are tuned off on the markup because its now pdf content. turn your lightweights back on and they should show correctly.

I never have my line weights turned on, so I learned that from experience!
