Topic: .dwg crashes on print

[dfarris75]

I have a file that when I try to print it crashes. It's not an overwhelmingly large file. I'm not sure what may be causing the problem. Any ideas?

It crashes on print preview as well. I queried into a new file and the problem remained.

I have seen it when the .PC3 file is corrupted (and there are no problems with my drawing)....


maybe

I use the same .pc3 with other files and don't have the problem.

can I see that no printing, no previewing file?

Things I normally do:

- if the drawing is on a server, I open it local and tested there
- recover, audit
- start from scratch drawing an paste all there...

It's actually the same file I tried to send you a week or so ago and you said you couldn't even download it. I've been trying to clean it up some, but thus far nothing I've purged from it has had positive results.

try posting it to a lily pad....

[dfarris75]

Try this.

Sadly I will be infecting your dwg with the 2009 upgrade virus when I close it.

I ran a test here and it preview your drawing, any of the layouts btw.


copy your file on your pc (local) and try it.... also where is the pc3?

[mjfarrell]

it plots fine here

[dfarris75]

I've tried it on my local. Ran a recover too. It still causes trouble. I've tried to another printer too.

Print to DWF and then print that....

Ok so it prints, but crashes on print preview...
