Question on PLT file

Post by ezanagar » 22 Oct 2008, 21:35

Hello,

Attached you will find a PLT file and a scan of a part of this image printed on a 30x42 sheet of paper from an OCE plotter

When I send this PLT to the printer directly with a "copy filename \\printername", the printout comes out perfect.

When I send this to the printer with a :

cadImage.Draw(e.Graphics, printableArea);

I get lines inside my fonts instead of dark filled fonts (please see attached "ProblemsWithPLT.pdf" file)
This file contains the scanned image of the far right part of the PLT printed by cadImport. You will see the lines inside the font.

Why is this happening? and how do I fix it? Why is the printout different from when I print it via a copy command?

Thanks

Ertan ZAnagar

Dear Ertan Zanagar,

Your ProblemsWithPLT.pdf contains a part of "08-020-A100 Construction Plan - Basement Floor.PLT". This part is in ten times smaller then the whole drawing. Do you print the same area when printing directly with a "copy filename \\printername" and using cadImage.Draw(e.Graphics, printableArea) ?
