Plotting issue

Anonymous
Not applicable

Hello everyone,

I have a quite unique issue related to plotting and possibly fonts. Anything I plot come's upside down.

When I am working on the model, all the texts are fine. When i do a preview on the plot everything come's out fine as well. However whenever I plot my plan in no matter which format i choose I get all the texts upside down. 

It is not related to mirrtext, and possibly not even to fonts since i took all the fonts from my companion next to me and his plotting comes out fine.

Reset your AutoCAD back to defaults and see if it still happens.

OR
Post screenshots of these pop-ups in AutoCAD:
ABOUT command
PLOT command so we can see your choices that revers your text.

@Anonymous - are you saying that you have a drawing like this:

But that when you print it, it looks like this:

In other words, the geometry does not change, only the text is rotated 180°?

Hi,

 

>> Anything I plot come's upside down

Is that drawing dependent?

Can you reproduce this with

  • starting a new drawing with an original AutoCAD template
  • draw just a few objects
  • select "AutoCAD PDF (General documentation).pc3" device
  • start plot-preview
