I have a schematic I am exporting to PDF to send. However, when I use the SmartPDF or export through an outjob Altium moves all net names, port names, and pin names to the left. Am I missing some setting that is doing this, or is there something about my schematic that would cause this? I cannot find anyone else who has had this problem in searching. I have attached an example of what is happening.

Centered Offset

  • \$\begingroup\$ The problem is with exporting to pdf. Although this problem also exists when I try to print it. Fit to page is selected in that dialog. \$\endgroup\$

I was having Altium exports that look like below.

This fixed it for me...

DXP->Preferences->Schematic->General->Render Text with GDI+ and uncheck Render Text with GDI+
