Printing PLT half size

Post by ezanagar » 01 Sep 2009, 22:33

I am able to print a PLT image half size without a problem.

My concern is that when I draw the image @ half size, the line weights and fonts are too dark. How can I make sure that line weights are exactly half size as well?

_cadImage.Draw(e.Graphics, printableArea); does what I need as far as scaling the image half size. However, the customer is not happy because the lines are too dark.

Hello

You can adjust the thickness of the lines with lineweights using the property double CADImage.LineWeightScale. For example, in this case, reduce the thickness of the lines twice:
...
_cadImage.LineWeightScale = 0.5;
_cadImage.Draw (e.Graphics, printableArea);
...
