Dear Forum,

I design mouthpieces for woodwind instruments in OpenSCAD and also like
to make a technical drawings of them in 2D.
The drawing should be exported as pdf. But then I will get a background
with it that I do not want (see the example).
Is is possible to put that off?

kind regards,
/Johan Jonker/

when i export to pdf, a splash window opens, with options for turning
on/off the grid, etc. Is that what you need?

Best wishes,

Ray

I am sorry to bother you with the question below.
It can be unselected in de pop up screen.

vriendelijke groet,
