I imported a JPEG file and drew few details and when I try to export it into pdf, the JPEG details do not get exported

I imported a JPEG file and drew few details and when I try to export it into pdf, the JPEG details do not get exported.

I can see the entire content on the screen but when it exports it is exporting only the lines and details I drew but not the jpeg image i imported.

Can you please tell me how can I fix the problem.

What version of SketchUp are you using? Latest in your profile doesn’t answer the question.

Share the .skp file so we can see what you are working with. If you are exporting directly from SketchUp, the PDF will only have vector data. If you export from LayOut you can get raster and vector.

Thanks.
That was the problem. Should it not ask a question to convert it into vector data upon import?

Maybe they could add that as a feature but it’s not supposed to. The PDF exporter in LayOut is better and you have much more control over what you get in the PDF.
