Superhatch creates boundaries when plotting

Anonymous — Thu, 02 Nov 2017 09:06:45 GMT

I am recently using superhatch a lot for making it easier to my clients to show how their interiors would look like.
But every time when i plot to pdf it creates boundaries around my superhatch.

I tried xclipframe = 0 and frameselection = 0 but none of that worked.

Anyone have any idea how i get rid of those white lines?...

The tiles should have a grey edge... but the boundaries make it white...
Same with the parquet, there is no white line in the image i import.

Welcome to Autodesk Forums!

Hi Stefaan,

Try to set system variable IMAGEFRAME=0, then use Batch Publish with "High Quality Print" preset, instead of using "Save as PDF" from Print window:I attached two PDF results created with different printing engine (Print window and Batch Publish). The second looks better.

Hi Maxim_k

Thanks for the reply!

i tried it also and i got pretty much the same results. the 2nd one looks slightly better.

So it is impossible to get rid of the white lines that a plot creates around the boundaries of the superhatch?

I think it also depends on the quality of the image tiles itself.
Do you use professionally created rater image tiles?
Can you attach them here?

not really sure if it has to do something with the image, tried and experimented with loads of pictures.
I keep getting the white boundaries

Thanks for looking into this!

Hi Stefaan,

I tried to save to PDF with different settings and methods, but seems you are right - each time white gaps arrear between image tiles in the superhatch.
I tried also on Windows version of AutoCAD and got the same results.
So looks like there is a defect (bug) and there is no workaround to achieve the correct results.

The problem persists for a long time:
