Anonymous · ‎03-23-2015

for some reason one of my files is not printing/plotting lineweight, either pdf or to the printer.

using the same ctb file lineweights are printing from another file.

pinaoula int elevations (not printing lw)

pens (printing lw fine)

Hi,

You forgot to attach CTB file, without it I cannot test your drawing.

it seems like when i have scale lineweights checked it makes all the lineweights the same no matter

what scale i'm printing at. if i turn it off then the lineweights vary.

does this mean that my ctb weights are just totally off?

won't let me attach ctb file. do i have to include it when i export?

I think "Scale Lineweights" option could be an issue, Have not tested myself though.
When I need to scale down or scale up my plots from AutoCAD (PDF files) I usually use Preview app:
After non scaled PDF created in AutoCAD, I open it in Preview app and "plot" it to another PDF with different paper size and "Scale to fit" option.
