I was plotting to PDF this morning, something I have done many times, but in spite of using my standard saved job file, my plots were coming out coloured instead of the usual black.

I looked at my job file and the "ALL COLOURS BLACK" setting was un-ticked. Strange I thought, so I re-ticked the box for all my layers and tried again. Same result, coloured output.

So I checked again, and "ALL COLOURS BLACK" is un-ticked again. In fact, I can tick the box, move to the next layer, move back, and the option is un-ticked again.

I cannot get it to stay!

This is on Ver. 23.0.5

Guess you are using the OUTPUT=>PLOTTING & PRINTING option.

If you just want PDFs it's much simpler/easier to just go to FILE=>PRINT where you get a much simpler PDF option.

I have fixed it now. For some reason the global setting for PDF had un-ticked the option for ALL COLOURS BLACK, forcing the setting to revert on the individual layers.

Why the global setting had changed is anybody's guess.

Seems OK on my Ver.23.0.5. If this was an global issue with this release it would have been raised before now.

Suggest you contact Tech Support as it may be down to your PC configuration?
