THE ANNOTATION SCALE IS NOT EQUAL TO THE PLOT SCALE

[seandarcy]

When I print from I get this warning when I include the text layer having the dimensions, and the text is then unreadable on the print.

googling gives a fix of setting  ANNOAUTOSCALE, but I can't figure out how to do this in TrueView.

Any help appreciated.

The 'fix' is for an AutoCAD software user to perform in the file, it's not an option in the free viewer.

Is there any discussion of allowing TrueView users to change annotation scale?

How can I print correctly if  I  can't fix the problem?

And how can I print if the problem isn't fixable in True View?

It's an alert, not the end of the print process: you should be able to continue with your printing as normal.

To fix it you need a CAD program, not the free viewer: whip out a credit card to purchase one if a free CAD program is not an option, help yourself https://www.google.com/search?q=free+dwg+cad+programs

Thank u for your immediate answer.
I don't think it's needed to purchase anything since I've been using
trueview (13 edition) several years now and never had a problem.
I use it to print hardcopies all the time. I'll keep looking for the
answer. Thank u again.

One more time: It's an alert, not the end of the print process: you should be able to continue with your printing as normal as you have done in 13-versions before today.

No, unfortunately I can't and that's why I'm contacting u. In preview I see
the whole drawing, but when it prints out, only 30cm is printed.
I figured it has to do with the pc3 driver I've created to use it for the
printing but I can't find what is wrong with the formation of the driver.
Thank u again for the immediate answer, don't worry anymore. I'll figure it
out eventually.
The strange thing is that I can turn the drawing into a pdf file with no
problem.

If you only get partial prints, but PDF output is fine, it could be your printer or driver has no capacity for the amount of information coming at it from the viewer, or you are using a very old driver for the viewer. None of these have much to do with the alert you are receiving and the topic of this discussion.

Forgive me friend, but the topic of this forum is a free-for-all software package call DWGTRUEVIEW: I do hope no one has convinced you to pay for it, you are getting robbed if so.

If you are writing about a different software package, please find that software's correct forum here https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/custom/page/page-id/Discussions-Page   then share in detail what issue you are facing with it so participants there can offer you some guidance.
