            Your description doesn't make any sense. Perhaps you could share the SKP file?

              this sounds like your 'Template' has 3 layers, test a different 'Template' and see if everything works...

              it seems to print fine for me...
              from your skp 'Print' >> 'Save as pdf'

                JOhn it's look great, but: when I want to print it it's probelm on the papier. On pdf you can see, taht some lines are lighter, and those one are not printing ....

                    What is the problem?

                    I'm unsure, but you do have two completely different qualities of line-work, some looks like imported edges [with lots of tiny steps] and the rest has crisp straight edges [as if drawn in SU]...

                    was the main building imported from another format?
