AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: Unable To Read Plot Settings From Variable In Text File

I’m trying to create a plot command that reads settings in from a variable stored in a text file but its becoming muddled up somewhere.

The file was originally created with Autocad 2010 in 2011.  i would post the file but it is a customer print and i cannot disclose it here.  we are now running up-to-date autocad 2013.  this is not a problem with other files i have had to work with (older and newer). just seemds to be a localized event and am wondering if it is that something is corrupt.

AutoCad :: Plot To PDF With Batch Plot Or Export Drawing To PDF

Mar 17, 2011

AutoCAD 2011 - XP - 2 Machine office

When I use the pdf plot drivers from AutoCAD or the export to pdf option the resulting pdf is not available to the other computer trying to access it through a shared folder.

When I plot to pdf with batch plot or export the drawing to pdf and save the file in the shared folder, the other computer can not open the pdf (file not found) or attach the file to an email (you do not have permission)

Why is this? All other files share and open fine. Only pdf files from batch plot, plot to dwg to pc3, or export to pdf. This is a pain and I still have to use another plot driver (cutepdf) to get a fully useable pdf for our office.

AutoCAD .NET :: Creating / Selecting Plot Settings And Apply Them To Layouts

Dec 9, 2011

I'm creating/selecting plot settings and apply them to my layouts.

The problem is when I open the plot dialog, the name of the page setup is not displayed. when I select the page setup name just created from the combobox, the setup is applied but the name still missing.

But this issue only combined with the new plot settings created in program. The existing page setups manually added from plot dialog are ok.The difference between the two type of plot settings is the .ISMODIFIED property is true for new settings but false for existing settings.

How can I make the plot settings not modified.

Lightroom :: How To Read Export Details From JPEG Exported From LR4

Jul 31, 2013

I have been playing around with the exporting options to a JPEG file (such as low sharpening, high sharpening, etc.).  However I did not track what I was doing diligently as I assumed I could "read" it later.  For example, a particular picture has 4 exports several minutes apart.  I can line up each export based on exported name and time stamp.  But I can't tell what options I selected during the exporting process.  Is there a way to find out what export options I selected for a particular export?  No other develop changes were made, just playing around with the export options.

AutoCAD 2010 :: Blank Page When Plot Preview And Export To Pdf

Oct 3, 2013

Excuse my awkwardness but I'm self taught on AutoCAD & have managed fine for last few months but have encountered an issue this evening I can't resolve.  I've produced drawings, basic they may be, but when preview them the actual drawing area is barely noticable & when export to pdf it practically prints a blank page.  I have very simple items in drawing, stockpiles, excavations test locations, and have been producing pdf's fine, even as recently as this morning using the same cadfile.  But what ever I've managed to do since then has changed something and I can't resolve the issue.

AutoCAD Print / Plot :: Export To PDF - Viewports Not Plotting As Displayed

Feb 5, 2013

I am plotting a layout with several viewports as a PDF, and the viewports are not plotting as displayed. Everything else on the layout plots perfectly.

I've attached two pictures:

1) asdisplayed.jpg is what I want

2) pdfoutput.jpg is what is outputed. As you can see the lines are (1) greyed + (2) do not have the lineweight I desire.

1) asdisplayed: 

2) pdfoutput:  

Here are my settings:

1) Plot style table: acad.ctb. I modified the Color 250 to be completely black so that text would be black. I've set the color for every object in modelspace to color 250 as well (no dither).
2) Plotter: DWG to PDF.pc3
3) Paper size: ANSI expand B
4) Plot scale: 1:1
5) Plot object lineweights: checked!
6) Plot with plot styles: checked!
7) Plot paperspace last: checked!
8 ) "Shade plot" setting for viewports: all set to "as displayed"
9) All viewports set to "Hidden" visual style

NOTE: I've noticed changing to visual style to 2D wireframe or using isolines tends to output exactly as displayed (keeps the lineweight + the black color / not greyed out. I need to use the hidden visual style for my purposes. 

Also I always get the option to update shading plots for viewports and I've clicked both options - both get same results of the modified viewports.

AutoCAD Print / Plot :: Change Plot Setup To Multiple Sheets For Use With Batch Plot

May 21, 2013

I have one drawing per file at model tab. When I need to plot a multiple page file, I use:

Print > Batch Plot.

The problem is that I have to set plot configurations ( plot style table, plot area, paper size, etc) in each file before use Batch Plot.

Now I received 722 files with a wrong Plot Style Table. For this time I change the associated *.ctb file at Plot Style folder, but I will need to associate the right *.ctb to each drawing. It's also common to have to change other properties.

AutoCAD 2010 :: How To Import / Export Text Annotation Settings

I have been trying to export my annotation settings using the  profile function on Autocad 2010.  I can't get it to work, and I don't think this is the best way to achieve my goal.  I've made a template file, but I don't know how to import it.

My goal is to, as quickly as possible, give 8 drawings the same annotation settings.

AutoCad :: Print PDF To Current Plot Settings In Current Drawing Directory

AutoCAD Print / Plot :: Export Drawing From Paper Space - Small Details In PDF

Jun 1, 2011

I've run into a small problem while trying to export a drawing from paper space as a PDF.  The drawing is of an electrical panel for a product.  The panel is rather large, but the drawing includes some smaller details, such as a vendor logo on a component or a few extra lines on the border of a display screen.  We have a large, multi page PDF file that uses A4 paper size that I need to insert this drawing into, so the export must be at this size.  When exporting, I have CAD set to use monochrome and ignore the line weights, which solved my initial problem that the parts would show up as solid black splotches.

Now that the back story is over, here's the problem.  When I export the pdf, everything looks great except these small details around the components.  For some reason, the lines in the components will shift to one side or the other, causing breaks between features.  Most of these breaks occur between an arc endpoint and a line endpoint.  The export also excludes some smaller bits of geometry.

Premiere Pro :: Export Settings For DVD?

Feb 21, 2014

I just finished editing a 67 minute documentary, and I'm preparing to send it to the replication company. The problem I'm running into is that the project looks very clear and clean in premiere pro, however as soon as I export and burn it to a disc via encore, the finished video is noticibly pixelated/grainy, and a lower quality. 
 
The footage was shot in HD. I've tried exporting MPEG-DVD and MPEG so far. The MPEG-DVD setting was worse than MPEG, but that wasn't great.
 
Is there anything I can try to get this footage to look better? (It's due at the replication company on Tuesday.)
