Print to DWFx precision problem

Hi

 

I'm having a problem with autocad layouts when printing to DWFx (probably also pdf or physical printers, but haven't tried it)

 

Here is the problem, it seems like some layouts have an error in the scale.
So i have one file created from a template with "pre-existing" layouts, one drawing in the model (all ortho and correct size lines), same viewport scale in all layouts/viewports and same printing settings, printed with Batch plot option:
- layout A (pre-existing from the template) -> everything prints ok with the correct scale
- layout B (created in the file with move or copy option of pre-existing layout A from the template) -> the viewports print with a diferent scale from layout B
- layout C (created from scratch with new layout option) - > the viewports print with a diferent scale from layout A and layout B
- if all layouts are printed together they all have the same correct scale

 

i can't understand what can be happening but its a problem if i want to print only one of the created layouts.

 

any thougts about what might be the problem?

 

also, is there a way to set the display precision in DWFx to Decimal: 0.00 when printing, because having to do it, view by view in DWFx takes too much time and work

 

If anyone want to try and find the problem, can find a zip with all the files in attachment.

 

Thanks

Hi @andreiamvale,

 

Thank you for posting, I am sorry to hear you are having a problem with the scale in your plotted drawings. 

 

Thank you also for the files. I was able to run a few tests with plots using the settings in your drawings, they seem to be plotting and publishing to scale, but I could be missing something. Can you tell me where you are seeing the scale is not correct? 

 

It would be help narrow down the cause if you could also post a ScreenCast showing steps to reproduce the issue and where the scale is incorrect. 

 

All the best,
