BOM --> Weight --> add column --> show summation row, PDF print problem

[MCATI]

When using BOM, add weight. Then chose add column, it will show 3 option, the last is "Show summation row" (Even in column selection), it's very nice can show the sum of all parts weight.

But when print to PDF, the BOM will be empty. If print to dwg, it's OK.

But when delete the "Summation row", PDF works properly, please help. Thanks

Which PDF writer are you using? They are not all equal.

I tried PDF with Alibre, and tried Adobe PDF, the result is the same, when I have "summation row", on PDF, there is only frames, inside data area is empty. Thanks

Try an assembly

I just tried it with Assembly Publishing from Alibre (built in writer) & Printing to Adobe PDF - both worked fine.

Stefan also used an assembly (look at Quantity column).
