Title: polygonal MVIEW printing
Post by: Andrea on April 25, 2005, 06:14:12 PM

Hi all,

I have a little big problem..
a printing problem..

When i'm trying to print a drawing in PaperSpace with 1 Mview.
(rectangular MVIEW)

it take 2 min. and the drawing is printing..

But in the same drawing...i f i delete the (rectangular MVIEW)
and replace with a customised MVIEW (Polygonal) or make VPclip.
and trying to print this drawing..
the drawing take over 20 min to print....!!!
Is this is normal ??    

i hope not..

I can't see any patch or update for this...

any suggestion ?

thanks.

Nope never had that problem and use VPCLIP often.  Check your plotter drivers for the latest.

Sorry, I never had that problem either. Are you using 2006? Could be a new bug altogether.

What version of ACAD are you using?

The plotsize doubles with custom viewports, so I think it's a memory issue.

Did you try a smal drawing if it has the same problem?
