One of our projects has a strange printing error that changes part of a solid line to a hidden line when printing vector. Also, shaded region doesn't retain shading as it should. I changed it to print raster and it works that way, but print quality is diminished. Has anyone seen this before? How did you fix it, or not?

Attached are snips from the Revit view, followed by snips from the raster and vector PDFs.

You'll notice that in the raster image lines are halftone or missing completely, so not an ideal solution. In the vector image the 30x24 ductwork coming from the left, which is several feet above the AHU, turns hidden as it crosses the hidden lines depicting the ductwork attaching to the bottom of the AHU. Also, note that the shaded region doesn't properly fill the areas where the ductwork from below appears. In the Revit view everything appears as it should.
