Batch plot lines appear faded/multitone

Hi 

 

I have an issue with batch plotting.

 

When I plot a single page to pdf the lines appear as expected (see pic). When I do a multi-page batch plot the lines appear faded and thin (see pic), only when you zoom into the drawing do the lines look somewhat normal. 

 

The drawing only consists of two line weights - 0.09 and 0.5

 

Is this something I can change in settings?

 

Your help would be greatly appreciated.

 

Thanks

 

Ian

Are you using the same plot style in both cases?  Your publish settings indicate you are using a page setup called Test.  Does that page setup specify the same plot style that is active when you plot a single sheet?

 

The batch plot appears to either have the screening value for some pens set to less than 100, or those items are being plotted as the gray-tone equivalent of their color.

Thanks for your response.

 

I am using the same plot style in both cases and it does specify the same plot style.

 

When I do a preview in the batch plot all appears ok, only when its printed as a pdf does the drawing line weights appear odd. I am only using two line weights and neither have the screening changed or are they a different colour, they are both set to black.

 

Appreciate your help.
