Note: this problem only occurs when multiple Visio pages are using exactly the same sets of layers. The only way around this is to first move the required pre-configured Visio page to position 1 and tell Acrobat to only print one page at a time, then combine the exported pages afterwards. The visible layer configuration of page 1 is copied to all following pages in the export they all look identical. The exported PDF has all layers visible on all 3 exported pages. Visio page 1 has all 330 layers visible (yes 330!), page 2 has 100 layers visible, page 3 has 30 layers visible. When exporting any of the pages after the first page, the layers in those subsequent pages are displayed as per the settings of the first page in the Visio document. The Acrobat Create PDF plugin for Visio works fine for exporting the first layered Visio page, but not any of the additional pages which have exactly the same set of layers, but are using a different layer configuration where only the layers needed are visible. The above sounds simple enough, but this is a significant customer of ours with their own significant number of in-house customers, which means a lot of options, lots of layers, and more importantly, must be available to the in-house customers as a multi-layered PDF so they can select sub-options. The customer can then choose the option they're after, and if needed add or remove optional components by turning layers on or off. The following pages are copies of the first master page, but with the appropriate optional layers turned off to produce the pre-configured starting points.įor example, the first two pre-configured pages might simply be two versions of a videoconference room setup, but one is using a projector with ceiling mics, and the other has an LCD display with table mics. The first page is the overall master with all available option layers visible as a reference. Our customer needs to be able to send out multi-page PDFs displaying various system configurations setup as pre-configured starting points for their own in-house customers to select from for their specific purposes, such as a meeting room, or teaching space, or.

These standard system designs start of as masters with all optional components and cabling connections available in their own layers. I am currently working on a project with the in-house AV Design team of one of our primary customers to create a range of standard audiovisual system design schematics using Visio, their preferred platform. I am an Audiovisual Designer working for an AV Integration company which provides a variety of services for the corporate/education/government sectors.
