I've noticed a really strange issue when using print preview in C3D. My dwg file has a MrSID file attached. I like to use print preview to see what my plot will look like. I zoom and pan around to be able to see it better.
When I zoom in or out, it looks like the SID file moves. Has anyone else experienced this?

I just got a reply in the C3D thread.

It's listed internally as DE9162 and is classified as a "Major Problem". Autodesk's solution is to change the image format to something else, such as TIFF. Except they forget that the purpose of a Mr. Sid image is that it can handle very large images. Our Mr. Sid is 2.5GB. It's impossible to convert it to a TIFF. Even if you do convert it, you run into the bug where a GeoTIFF's UNIT value is ignored and the only way to insert it is to turn off the coordinate system, insert the image, then turn coordinates back on.
