Not All Paper Spaces (Layout Sheets) are Plotting

[Anonymous]

I am having problems with plotting out several layout sheets - I have 8 sheets of 22x34 and able to plot out all but sheets 2 and 3. For some reason, it only plots out the paper space items and not the model space areas. Do anyone have any ideas why this is happening?

(This is a Civil3D drawing with Service Pak 3 installed)

Hope someone can give me some ideas here...

Are you getting the same results on
1. Plot Preview,
2. Printing on another printer (if only a small portion).
3. Checking that objects are not on NON-Printing layers.
4. Objects are not on Defpoints layer.

If you want to send me a dwg, I will be glad to look at it.
(or a portion of one.)

Bill, yes, I am getting the same results on Plot Preview, it is not on a Non-printing layer, and not on Defpoints Layer, and it has the same results using different printers.
I have been testing this now and the only way to get a full plot is having the "Plot Paperspace Last" checked - which is not what I want since the grid on paperspace interferes with the proposed profile.


Another odd thing is that one particular note (mtext) with leader does not plot at all. If I copied a different note and randomly place them on the plan (in Paperspace), they also do not plot. Should I just hand write this note after it gets plotted?

Since you haven't mentioned it, have you AUDITed the drawing?

If that produces no results, check for the Express Tool Layer Manager
settings. If there are any in there that you are not using, delete them,
purge, audit and try the plot, again. (I've seen the ET layer manager
appear to create a very similar error twice........removed them and all was
well.)
