I'm creating my own title block and inserting a company logo. I go into edit title block and click insert image. I choose my .bmp file then fit it to my title block and exit sketch and save. Once out of the edit, the image looks fine but when I do a print preview the image is stretched and when I actually print the sheet, there is no image at all.

View 2 Replies View RelatedWas printing 4x6" from LR 5.3 fine. To an Epson 3880. Then went to Page Settings (MAC) changed paper size to 8.5x11". The preview responded with a larger page. I scaled the image up to 8x10 via lightroom cell size. But when I printed to the Letter size paper, LR printed only a close to 4x6" top left corner. This was not a full image like the 4x6. It was just a corner.
Exported to PS and printed fine.Can not figure why the print will not print the full image?
When I make a print from CS6 the image on paper is narrower than the stated dimension in the program. The height of the image is faithfully reproduced. I know that there must be a preference setting to correct this but I can't remember which one it is.
View 8 Replies View RelatedI am using Revit MEP 2013. I inserted a pdf in model space. My drawing and original pdf file is in the same directory. I can print the image while I am in model space. I went to paper space and used a polygon viewport to make the pdf show in PS (had to use polygon to get rid of unwanted items on pdf). The viewport that has the MS pdf won't print on any of my printers and won't show in print preview. I have checked to make sure all layers are on a print layer and made sure that the image in MS was not on defpoints. I originally dragged and dropped the pdf into MS. I then used xref to attach the drawing. Neither method would print in PS.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have a drawing with loads of images on it. All I want to do is print the image name so instead of a picture showing it should say "banana.jpg" or whatever the image name is.
I've tried unloading the images and plotting, but nothing happens.
I work with use autocad 2012, and am trying to create a pdf of a plane containing several aerial photos. I have set ImageFrame to 0. And I use Export to Pdf from output tab. When it creates pdf, images have a gray border or white, so I can see the connection between them.
I have ensured that there is no space between the images. I export from a layout with rotated UCS. The images are Tiff format.
I am trying to print some white text / couple of lines over top of an image in white - so that they do not blend in after the drawing has been printed.
I am using monochrome printing status - and have set the color printing to (use object color), and set the 'screening' value to '0'.
I have ensured that the color 'white' under plot styles is also set to 255,255,255. I have ensured that the printer configuration for 'Merge Control' is set to 'Lines Overwrite'.
Yet its till prints the lines in Black!!!
The only thing I noticed is that when you look at the layer table itself it still shows the plotter to overwrite white with color : 'color_7' which is black correct?
however the option is greyed out so that you cannot elect or change it... And I cannot find anywhere to alter this color overwrite 'plot style' as it is labelled...
Do I just need to change this 'plot style' setting? where can I find this?

Is there any work around that will force AutoCad to spool when trying to print a large .tiff image? I am trying to print an image whose file size is 150mb to a plotter.
It doesn't spool at all, it instantly prints (leaving out the image). The image is on a layer set to print etc.
i am using autocad 2014 when i am try to print the image in big page such as 24 X 24 inches my image will scatter, the curve lines are look like zig zag lines and texts are faded, how to increase the resolution of the image so that i can print it in large paper.my printer is not connected to my computer that's why i have to convert the drawing to jpeg image, and my resolution become very low to print in big size paper.
View 1 Replies View RelatedData Connect Image Printing problem.I have an Aerial image that I bought in via Data Connect. It's been working well for a while. Suddenly the next time I go to Print, either to the plotter, DWF or PDF, for some reason the entire Image is thrown to the northwest corner of the viewport at a miniscule scale! The image is fine on-screen, until you print or even do a print preview!
I tried disconnecting and reconnecting, did an audit before I reconnected, deleted all my Cache files, but to no avail! This is not the first time this has happened, but the last time it did, disconnecting, doing an audit, and deleting the Cache files before reconnected appeared to solve the problem. But this time (just when we upgraded to Map 3D 2012), it didn't work.
Since switching to 2007 our company logo, a png image, plots with a line down the right side the image. It does not show up in plot preview or when plotting to pdf or dwf. I have set image frame to 0 and 2 with no change.

I was asked to create a local area map of the site and i used a google map image as the map. I have a paper space layout with labels and the company title block, with a raster image reference in the model space viewport, when I go to print this drawing using plot PDF the image comes out so grainy it's useless. When I plot to printer the paper space layout comes out great but only a slice of the raster image is printed.
No indication of problems can be seen in autocad's preview mode, and this doesn't happen outside of Autocad- I can open the image and have it print to PDF clearly, and I can open the image and print to printer without problems.
Here's a link that explains what the printer is doing: [URL] .......
The image is supposed to fill the whole viewport, but most of the viewport is blank.

I am simply trying to print or save an Inventor .DWG file to a .PDF file via C# - the issue being that the .PDF page size must correspond to the active sheet size in Inventor.

oPrint.PrintRange = PrintRangeEnum.kPrintSheetRange;

View 1 Replies View RelatedI need to print an initial 2d sketch (without any 3d work done on it).
Printing this in sketch mode seems to output a screen capture, i.e. some lines appear wriggly and not as precise as an ordinary plot of an idw or dwg file.
A sketch w/o any 3d work will not be accepted as an idw file, thus I am not able to use all the formatting (tblocks, fonts, dimstyles, etc.) options available to idw files.
Is there a way of printing a 2d sketch (w/o any 3d work) as an idw file?

For some reason I cannot print the whole of an image onto an A4 sheet of paper. I have 2 problems
a) I want the image to be exactly the size of the paper (with no margin). I have removed the margin from the printer dialogue and used the 'print size' command to make the image the right size for an A4 image. The print preview shows there's no margin, but the print still has a small margin.
I am losing about 10 columns of pixels from the left side of the image. Once again the whole image is shown in the preview, but the print has data missing. This still happens when I reduce the size of the image so that there's plenty of room on the paper.
