# Plotting Improvement [GstarCAD 2022](Help%20System/GSTARCAD/2022/Index.md) → [What's new](Help%20System/GSTARCAD/2022/What's%20new/(What's%20new).md) In GstarCAD 2022, the PDF plotting driver is significantly improved. The plotting effects now are more precise and accurate, and many plotting issues in the old version are completely solved. ## **1、PDF Plotting Driver** When you plot with any options in GstarCAD 2022, the TTF (Truetype fonts) text is outputted as searchable and editable text with smooth border display, no matter how you set the value of the text width factor and the oblique angle.  Hyperlinks are retained and remain clickable when plotted to PDF.  Third-party tools can easily read all information of the PDF plotted from GstarCAD 2022, and you are able to search, copy text and add electronic signatures, etc.  **2、Plotting with Transparency** The display after plotting with transparency is much clearer and more accurate, the arcs, circles, ellipses, graphics and text boundaries are smoother. And the drawing information after plotted will not be modified, all kinds of objects can be plotted correctly. The following image shows the effect plotted from GstarCAD 2022 and scaled up 700%.  The Lineweight and Linetype are displayed correctly after plotting with transparency.  The annotative objects are displayed accurately and in high quality after plotted with transparency.  **3、Hidden Shade Plotting** The display after hidden shade plotting is significantly improved, which is much more accurate and clearer than before. And the lines, polylines, arcs, circles, ellipses and other objects after hidden shade plotting now have smoother boundaries. The following image shows the effect plotted from GstarCAD 2022 and scaled up 700%.  **4、Raster Images Plotting** Large raster images in different sizes and formats can be previewed and plotted smoothly, in GstarCAD 2022, you are able to plot even 1 billion pixels images.  The plotting speed of 1-Bit and 32-Bit color raster images increases exponentially, the plotting speed of 1-Bit images improves at most 10 times, and 32-Bit images improves at most 5 times. The display after plotting rotated or clipped raster images is more accurate, and images after plotted have no offset. When you plot a raster image to PDF, the size of the plotted PDF file is greatly reduced, while its original details are fully retained, as well as keeping the high quality of plotting in GstarCAD 2022.
