cwwalder Posted June 13, 2011 Share Posted June 13, 2011 Hello everybody, I hope some can help and with that I thank you. So here is my issue. I am using MEP 2012, I have arch back rounds on in a Xref. Everything seems to be fine and work well. When we go to print the drawing on with the xref on it is barely visible. If I open the xref up and print it comes out fine. I have inserted the xref to its own layer.I do not know what to do from here. Please any help would be great. Thanks in advanced.

RobDraw Posted June 13, 2011 Share Posted June 13, 2011 Assuming you are using .ctb plot style. Are you using the same pen settings for both files? Are the layer colors the same in both files? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cwwalder Posted June 13, 2011 Author Share Posted June 13, 2011 Yes and Yes... lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DNK Posted June 13, 2011 Share Posted June 13, 2011 Yes and Yes... lol Through the viewport too? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cwwalder Posted June 13, 2011 Author Share Posted June 13, 2011 I don't see why they would be different Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DNK Posted June 13, 2011 Share Posted June 13, 2011 I don't see why they would be different You can make a viewport active, and have custom plot settings applied to the layers which only occur in that viewport. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobDraw Posted June 13, 2011 Share Posted June 13, 2011 Have you assigned a transparency to the layer that the XREF is on? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cwwalder Posted June 13, 2011 Author Share Posted June 13, 2011 There has not been a transparency to the layer and when I went to the viewport I did not notice any changes to the layers, but reset them anyways and still cam out with the same out come.

RobDraw Posted June 13, 2011 Share Posted June 13, 2011 Can you post the file or portion thereof so we can see if we get the same results? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RobDraw Posted June 13, 2011 Share Posted June 13, 2011 Can you create a file with the same problem that you can post? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cwwalder Posted June 13, 2011 Author Share Posted June 13, 2011 Well I got it, the IT guy wasn't doing his job in keeping up with video cards. Fixed. Thanks for the help guys. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobDraw Posted June 13, 2011 Share Posted June 13, 2011 I wouldn't have thought that a video card could affect plotting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cwwalder Posted June 13, 2011 Author Share Posted June 13, 2011 Me either, but he updated the video card and it works now. Could have been he was hiding some too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
