Hi,
We are running ECL Viewer 7.0 PL1. We are using it to view both PDF and DWG. DWG is best viewed in monochrome, but PDF is best viewed in color (removing the tick in monochrome).
Is it possible to have different settings for the ECL viewer to automatically switch between color when PDF is opened, and monochrome when DWG is opened?
Or, is it possible to define (I tried but failed) a greyscale black/white which does a fine job on both PDF and DWG?
Any suggestions is greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Kind Regards
Soren
Request clarification before answering.
Hi,
Actually if I check both "monochrome" and "Greyscale" in the options tab, it looks ok. But how do I set the greyscale entry in regedit? I know monocolor takes care of monochrome, but whats the key for greyscale?
Thanks in advance,
Kind Regards,
Soren
EDIT: after more testing it seems this didnt do it afterall, it all depends on the monochrome setting still. If anyone has an idea how to have greyscale on PDF and DWG please let me know.
Thanks

Hi Soren,
thanks for the information and I regret the late reply. From my point of view I'm using the latest patch 4 and the quality of PDF display is fine.
I remember some issues with former patches regarding the display quality, but these issue were solved at least with patch 4. So I would truly recommend you to uninstall your current ECL Viewer installation completely and then install the ECL Viewer 7 with the stand-alone installation. After this and a reboot please install each patch up to level 4. Then the display in the
'copyright' pop-up should be ok and I think also the PDF display quality.
Best regards,
Christoph
Hi Christoph,
Please dont regret anything, the fact alone that you spend your time on helping us on the forum, is very much appreciated! Your previous answers in other threads has helped me with several regedit entries.
I have now installed ECL 7.0 PL4, and "out of the box" it looks great, both DWG and PDF are in great quality.
Our issue persists tho, and maybe you have a solution for the problem.
We want to view PDF in color but DWG in monochrome. or atleast, both PDF and DWG in high greyscale quality. Is this somehow possible to specify greyscale in regedit, or to specify color for PDF and monochrome for DWG?
in short - we want to get rid of the colors in the DWG files, but we dont want to have bad quality on PDF.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
Best regards,
Soren
