OLE TEXT-plot quality issue [win] driver???

I know, I know 🙄this topic has been widely commented on forum, but I'd like to focus on the other side.

OLE [excel] object text is plot in poor quality. Looks like pixeled on paper. Most solutions are focused on changing plot quality other than monochrome. As default in my environment we use "Low quality graphic".

HOWEVER

using same settings I receive different output then my collogues having same equipment (Acad2023).

I assume this can be related to some Windows/Adobe driver.

Any chance you can help me out to find out is that the case? If so how can I update my driver?

Thank you

 

HERES THE SETTINGS I TRIED SO FAR:

  • OLESTARTUP- set to 1
  • PLOTTRANSPARENCYOVERRIDE is set to 1

if you colleague has the same equipment and getting better results, you have your answer there. Look at all their settings and import them to your system.

Hi, spoken to Acad helpdesk and it turns out I had chosen "manufacturing" precision in the plot setup. This affected badly the OLE object. Once changed all came back to normal!
