PROFILE VIEW GRID NOT PLOTTING

I created my Plan and Profile sheets with Plan Production tools in Civil 3D 2012. Although the Profile grids are visible on the layout  sheet, they vanishes when previewed or plotted. Anyone with solutions?

The very first place I would look is at my CTB file. If you don't know what that is, ask someone in your office to show you. This file specifies that objects of specific colors plot certain ways.

 

For example, I can specify color 251 to plot 0% shaded, which means it won't show up on the plot.

 

Did you check the layer the grid is on and confirm it is not set to No Plot?

Beside already suggested CTB settings. One other thing to check is your Layer settings. Go to Layer manger and see if any of the layers are set to not to plot:

I discovered my layers"C-ROAD-PROF-GRID-MAJOR" and "C-ROAD-PROF-MNR" were set to "No Plot" by the "Devil". However , I  will go further to learn more about CTB settings. Thanks.
