In my drawing, when I'm zoomed out, I see lines through a solid face that aren't support to be there (edges of components underneath the top part). When I zoom in, the lines disappear as the part really is. This is not a problem within the SW drawing, however, when I save the drawing as PDF the lines are also exported. I would expect SW to calculate the model so the lines don't appear. Any way to change that?
Thanks,
Fred
SolidWorks has had a long-standing issue with bleed-through of thin bodies. They've put some effort into improving this in recent years, and have had pretty good success, but as you've seen the problem hasn't been completely fixed. I'd suggest you check your settings when saving to pdf, and if that doesn't work then try printing to pdf instead. See #7 at Frequently Asked Forum Questions for more information.
That answers my question, thanks Glenn and great work on the FAQ thread.
Update : I figured it was my view settings set to "Draft Quality". Changing it to "High Quality" fixed it.
