Printing to PDF a Image that has Reduced Transparency

Hi All

When printing a image that has for an instance say a transparency of 25% that is behind an existing design (Google Image), it always shows the lighter image in the design yet it always prints at 100% full colour.

Is there a way to print this to a PDF with the reduced transparency ?

Thanks Douglas

Hi Douglas,

Unfortunately, no. The opacity scale is only for the view and not for the print. This is handled by Visual CADD, the CADD engine that IRRICAD Standalone uses, and this currently sends the as-is image data to the printer.

To print at less than 100% opacity you would need to edit the image outside of IRRICAD and then re-import it.
