Someone in my Facebook group mentioned this PDF printer software that lets you create a single-layered PDF from a multi-layered PDF, saving all of your layer selections. This is kind of the holy grail for folks who want to print out a multi-layered PDF at a print shop, without hassling with all of the different layer selections at the shop. So I went to this page: www.pdf995.com/download.htmlI downloaded the "Pdf995 Printer Driver" and "Free Converter". Then, all I did was open up a multi-layered PDF from one of my models, and I turned on a few layers. I went to "Print", choosing "Pdf995" from the list, and then it produced a single-layered PDF with all of my texture options the way I wanted them. Be sure to save the PDF as a new file! Overall, very easy. There are annoying popups for the free version, but hey, free. If I used this more than a few times, I'd probably buy it. Anyway, this works for me. Might work for you.

You can do the same with Primo PDF. It's free as well, but without the annoying popups.
Honestly though, I think you could accomplish this with any virtual printer that outputs to PDF.

I must admit, I don't try to save my multi-layered creations as I build things as one offs. The only exception is when I'm working with TOPO's stuff in ECM viewer. That is simply a case of saving the new scheme under its own title.
