Hello,
How can I print a schematic or layout as PDF, so I can search for RefDes?
Unfortunately it prints always as picture and this is really annoying.

Schematic print in PDF - searching for RefDes
Re: Schematic print in PDF - searching for RefDes
I think you need to use a TrueType font to get this to work. I use the Consolas font in schematics. I tried searching a PDF of one of my schematics and it does find the reference designators (they are highlighted with a gray rectangle).
Although it's good practice to use the Vector font for PCB Layouts, it's not necessary for schematics.
