I am having a terrible time trying to figure out why my arcs in my dwg/dxf drawings will not plot correctly. I will be feeding these PDFs to a laser cutter and need closed loops without any gaps. The file only has one layer, and that layer is set to plot.

It appears I have found the issue. Whenever I select "extents" in the "what to plot" drop-down in the plot dialog, or the "export" drop-down in the pdf export dialog it clips the vector, creating a gap. The "display" option generates just fine. Here are the settings I used to create the gap:
Okay I will use "Window" option from now on as a solution to this problem. I do not see how page orientation comes into play in this example as the vectors easily fit in both orientations. That said, the "Extents" option clipping the vectors when there is more than adequate space on the page is unintentional and a legitimate software issue in my understanding. Am I missing something or is this true?
