AutoCAD Print / Plot :: Plotting Grey Instead Of Black LT 2010?

Aug 11, 2011

how to stop AutoCAD Lt from ploting in grey... it doesnt seem to make sense to me why this is happening. We use to have Autocad 2007 and a lot of the files that we still work from were created in that. Everytime files are now plotted to pdf parts of the drawing appear a very light grey as oppose to black which is how they appear on the screen. In the plot style table in the page setup they are also black - and I have tried changing it from monochrome to custom pen assignments, nothing seems to change it. The files are usually in stb as oppose to ctb. whole page prints black or the colours that I have actually clicked on?

AutoCAD Print / Plot :: DWG To PDF - Lines Plot As Gray Instead Of Black?

May 9, 2011

Unfortunately I am using ACAD 2000 so bear with me and the only ACAD training I have is a 3 day crash course at the local software reseller.

I am attempting to plot a drawing that was created from a template into a .pdf but it is plotting colored lines instead of black lines. 

Here is some background info.  My template is set up as a .dwt which I will save as a .dwg when I begin to make my drawings.  Plot style table is “monochrome.stb” and I have selected Adobe .pdf as my plotter configuration.  I then select the “Properties” then go to “Custom Properties”, “Paper/Quality” tab and then select “Black & White” as my color.

When I go to plot the drawing as a pdf and do a preview of what I am about to plot, I see that the lines that make up the drawing are a shade of gray in color.  All my lineweights in the layers property manager are set to default.  I have attached a blank drawing that is based off of my template.

AutoCAD 2013 :: Text And Lines Color - Black Changed To Grey

Jul 24, 2013

I have few text labels and lines in a drawing that supposed to have black color.

However, color at some point changed to grey.

Color- by layer, transparency- by layer, viewstyle- 2D Wireframe...

The thing is if I double click on a text it turns to black but after regenall it turns to grey again!

Already did restart and everything. Looks like there is maybe some variable for color control, I don't know.

I am currently running Map 3D 2012 with CadWorx and I am having an issue with one of my multi tab drawings.

VideoStudio :: Preview Screen Goes Black When Pausing

Nov 15, 2011

Have just installed VSx4 trial version. I previously used x3 with no problems. I've created a new project, imported an AVI and it plays fine in the preview window, in either Clip or Project mode. However, as soon as I pause it the image goes black.

This makes any kind of editing nearly impossible. I don't get the problem with the pre-installed sample video "V21". So I guess it is clip related? It plays and pauses fine in media player.

Premiere Pro :: Get A Black Capture Screen (preview) / But Video Captures Fine

Feb 17, 2014

I get a black capture screen when capturing with CS6 on a Windows 7 machine.  I'm capturing through Fire wire from DV tape, via the VCR function of a Canon XL2 camera.  I have tried restarting, etc.; also toggled the "preview video" radio from the Settings button in the capture Window.  Nothing works and I need to be able to preview my video as I'm capturing.  It is not good enough that the video actually captures fine.  Also, I am forced to turn off Device Control in order to capture because it kicks me out of every capture (an immediate message of : "no frames captured") unless I do.

AutoCAD Print / Plot :: Print Preview Thick Lines?

Jan 8, 2014

I received an Autocad file from another person, opened it with Autocad 2011 LT, and it looks fine. But when I go to print preview all the lines are very thick, making the detail of the drawing difficult to see. I've tried manually changing the lineweights but it has no effect on some of the layers. Is there an easier way to fix this other than recreating layers?

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Hatch Background - Color Mask To Show On Screen Green And Gray But Plot Black And Gray

Feb 27, 2013

My company is switching from ctb files to stb files. With the ctb file, we make concrete hatch with two layers. A top layer with the concrete hatch pattern and a background layer with a solid hatch patern. The ctb file concrete plots the concete hatch black and the solid background hatch light gray. I am using civil 3d 2013 and the hatch allows a seperate background color mask. I am trying to make all my concrete layers (Top of Curb, Curb Flowline, etc.) a certain color scheme, i.e. shades of green. I would like my on screen concrete hatch patern to be a green color with a gray background, but plot the concrete hatch black with a gray background. I can not figure out how to do this without making two layers. Is there a way to use one layer and utilize the background color mask to show on screen green and gray, but plot black and gray?

Paint.NET :: Black And White BMP Becomes Coloured PNG

Jul 4, 2011

I'm having quite a bit of a problem with Paint.NET.

I'm scanning some text and saving it in black and white BMP files, usually around 60KB each.

Thing is, I need to edit those files to rotate the image a bit (sometimes the pages are misplaced) and when I save them as PNG files, they end up being even larger than the original file (around 100KB each).

I tried opening them up using Win7's Paint, and after saving them as PNG, I get a file of around 16KB.

Obviously there's some setting in Paint.NET that I'm missing, would you mind pointing me to it?

EDIT: Oh, I forgot to mention that I've also fiddled around with the settings in the "Save as..." dialog to no avail

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Station Ticks Display In Plot Preview But Do Not Plot

Nov 29, 2012

I have a stationing line.  I've used the block PTTICL to make ticks.  The ticks display perfectly.  I'll run through a plot preview and the ticks show on the plot preview.  I push plot go to the printer and the ticks are not plotted.

I've checked the layer.  They are on a layer that should print.

I've checked the block.  The block is created on a layer that should print.

I've run through a number of options regarding the alignment label properties and found "display" to be equal to "true."

Everything else plots just fine. Only the station label ticks refuse to plot.  My project is fairly short so the work around was to put a poly line right on top of the tick mark.

He has tried several printers and uninstalled and reinstall the drivers for them.  Tried uninstalling and reinstalling the program as well.the Windows Application event viewer shows this when AutoCAD crashes.

AutoCAD Print / Plot :: Corrupt Preview And Plot

Oct 1, 2009

When attempting to print drawings that have been printed before...much of my drawing will print but many lines and blocks will not show up in preview, or print. i wonder whatt he problem is, as there are some lines which have exactly the same properties (ie on the same layer with no overides etc). where some will print but others wont (ie on the same layer etc). A similar problem persists where some xrefs show in preview and others don't.

Also the stuff in layout space is part there and part not, where this layout title block etc is standard for all drawings and has always printed fine.

It seems the only way to solve it is to copy everything into new drawings (including xrefs) and start again....? I have checked layers, no print etc...

GIMP :: How To Convert Black Dotted Lines Of Paths Tools Into Straight Black Lines

Dec 6, 2011

Total buffoon when it comes to getting GIMP to do what I want to do. I'm just practicing with making maps, black lines on a white background, and I've run into some issues I'm wondering if I can get rectified.

1) For whatever reason, the line weight of everything has shifted throughout the file, ending with some lines lighter and grayer than others. Is there a way I can get GIMP to trace all the lines in a uniform black, with uniform thickness?

2) I have tried locking the white background, but often when I select and move my black lines, if I don't click in just the right spot it moves the white background instead, which is really, reeeaaaly aggravating. How Do I get that background to be completely untouchable?

3) In trying to colour the image, I've run into problems with their being a white outline between the colour and the black lines. I think I need to sharpen the image or somesuch? How can one correct this issue?

4) Is there anyway to convert the black dotted lines of the paths tools into straight black lines, in regards to an older file? If not, is there an easy way to trace them?

5) I find the scale too tends to make my image too jagged. I want to take a section of my map, move it too another file and enlarge it to do detail work - what's the best way to do this in order to have a clear image?

6) Any way to translate an image from a MErcator Projection ot a Winkell-Trippel projection, one that works on a Mac?

Photoshop :: How To Turn Black Or Dark Coloured Clothing / Items White

Aug 7, 2012

I have been using Photoshop for a while now but have recently been invited to design some sportswear. I want to initially take existing clothing and change the colours and add designs. As an example, how would I get this soccer kit to be either all white or white on everything apart from the shorts?

I have managed to get yellow to go white using the hue/saturation tool but dark colours seem like its impossible. I do also want to know how to go from white to a darker colour but maybe I should save that for my next thread.

AutoCAD Print / Plot :: 3D Drawing Won't Plot In Black And White Using CTB

Nov 21, 2011

We do most of our drawing in 2D – quaint I know, but that’s the way the office works.  On occasion we’ll do something as a solid model to guide a client understand a complex roof or a clearance problem. We started a model for a project we are working on and ended up using it as building elevations.

The problem is with plotting. If I use our standard office CTB (which is set to print as black), I get color printouts no matter what I try. I have tried using an STB and changing all our layer colors to “7” in an attempt to make it print black, but I'm getting extremely undesirable - seemingly random - line weight results.

The client wants the next project done in 3D as well and I’d like to be able to have the elevations look right.

AutoCAD Print / Plot :: Wipeouts Plot Solid Black?

Jun 8, 2011

We have two Xerox 6204 Wide Format plotters, one in my office and one in another.  When I plot the wipeouts (w/in blocks on layer 0, color 255 which is set to 0 screening) it plots as it should.

When the same file plotted with the same *.ctb file in the other office the Xerox plots same wipeouts come out completely black.  (The LaserJet prints are not effected).

Revit :: How To Print Odd View On Sheet With Coloured Lines

Oct 14, 2013

In our company we currently model using coloured lines rather than the Revit desired black/white but we are more and more being asked to print the odd view on a sheet with coloured lines or a coloured 3d view.
 
As some of us have grown up on th edrawing board through to Revit we are so used to the coloured lines and feel that it gives the drawing depth and is so much easier to understand.
 
I have been trying every way to keep the coloured linies but using view templates. filters and phasing to enable me to change views quickly from coloured to black and then back but there is no easy quick transition especially as we can't use these to change standard linetypes.
 
Why Autodesk have made this such a difficult issue within revit... Now we can model in 3D, create schedules automatic yet Autocad is much better for plotting...
