I am working with Corel Draw X5, Version 15.2.0.626 on a Windows 7 PC which is connected via Novell IPrint to a Conica minolta Bizhub C280 and A HP Offic Jet 850. On both printers I have noticed that a 1:1 print shows differences in scale to the sketch I have made at Corel Draw. As an example I have created a cm scale of 40cm with lines in cm and mm distance. Then I have printed it on both printers and I noticed that at the 28cm position the printed scale is only 27.95cm long. This error occurs on both printers. I have tried to create a CAD drill diagram but because of these large errors I will get holes on the wrong position. This diagram uses distances of 35 cm and here the error is nearly one millimeter.
When I check "Scale to Fit Media" in my print options what exactly is going on? Does it get resampled? Does the resolution change? And what is the difference between using this option and setting my document size in the "Image Size" dialog box?
I am currently printing/plotting a ANSI D size drawing to 1:2 scale but whether I plot directly to the printer or publish to PDF I lose the drawing border.
As it is possible to import 3D objects in PS... And display it in outline in an orthographic view, I'm wondering how to print this view at scale 1:1 of the model size...
and not the size of the image file defined in pixels. AS a workaround is it possible to export that view in vector format to edit and print in Illustrator or Acrobat.
Is there a way to setup Photoshop CS6 print settings so that "Scale To Fit Media" is the default. I tried to create an action and then through Bridge select a folder and Batch send the files to Open-Print-Close. Since images are never received 8.5"x11" it would be convenient to have this as a default. Since the print settings revert, or aren't defaulting to "settings last used", my batch attempt was unsuccessful. I know I could edit my action to adjust image size to page dimensions, but thought a way to edit the Print settings default must be out there somewhere. (Using MacBook Pro OSX 10.8.4)
Why in some of my drawings I am not able to select the "scale lineweights" check box in the plotting dialog? I am using 2002. I can't seem to find any differences in these dwgs?
Data 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.
I have a Makerbot Replicator 3d printer for my class. I am having issues when I save my drawing as an stl file bring it up in the Makerware software it decreases the size and I can't get things to scale. I have been in contact with Makerbot for several months and their response is now: "We actually may have had a bit of a breakthrough! Apparently there's something off about the way that Inventor exports files to .stl, and there may be a bug in our software when scaling. Whenever exporting to .stl, especially in metric apparently, Inventor makes the object 10% of the size. To correct for this, can you try scaling your model by 1000%, then exporting to .stl and bringing it into MakerWare? Send me a copy of the .stl either way, and let me know how it goes!" and "The issue is not something we can fix because it's not an issue in MakerWare.
Is it possible to print a view or part of a view to scale for collaboration without first putting the view on a sheet? Thinking about preliminaries, when working with students. Its easy, in autocad, to print anything to scale regardless of whether views are on sheets. Is there a similar capability in Revit? All I can find is zoom scale.
I have been looking through a ton of threads and can only find half an answer to what I'm looking for: When I draw in mm, I have to set the scale of the viewport to 1:30 or somewhere in that range. But in reality, the object that Im drawing isn't 1/30th of the size that it prints. How do I get the scale right to print the object at its actual size? cad 2013
I ma trying to print surface legend table to scale. I changed settings in model space, but I am not able to set it up to scale in layout (paper space).
I recently joined a firm that has been working drawings up in meters in model space
The issue comes that when i go to input a scale at the viewport stage the drawing is tiny. Ive always worked in mm and thus never had this issue when using the standard 'z' enter 's' enter 1/##xp' to achieve the desired scale
i would like to understand how i can still work these drawings without scaling everything up in model space at a factor of 1000, which is the only way i can think of getting round this issue.
When trying to scale the print size, after clicking inside the scale box, the sizes just keep increasing, even though I never got a chance to enter anything.It just keep getting bigger and bigger. How do I turn this "feature" off?
using CorelDRAW X6. I am having trouble when opening SVG documents in CorelDRAW X6. They seem to always be 33.333% smaller than the size I saved them in Adobe Illustrator.
I am more familiar with AI and use it for most of my design work. I use CorelDRAW mainly to save files as HPGL plotter files to cut designs with a CMC machine (there is no way to my knowledge to save HPGL files with AI).
When I open an AI file in CorelDRAW it is always to scale. However when I save it as an SVG file and open it with CorelDRAW it is always exactly 33.333% smaller than the size I saved it as in AI. While I can open AI files in CorelDRAW for my purposes it is easier if I save as SVG. I just want it to be the same scale when I open it in CorelDRAW but it is always smaller (by exactly 33.333%)
Not that it is that big of an issue, I can always scale it to the proper size. I would just like to understand why it works this way and if there is a way to correct it.
I have one object and need to create a 10mm smaller copy of it and keep the propotions. Is there any way to do it or I need to draw smaller object manually?
Here is my example. Green object is original. Red one is manually re-drawed but thats not what I want.
Looking to see if corel has any way to scale an open outline along its path from one size to another. So for example a curvy open ended line would start with a stroke of 2 pt and end with a stroke of 20 pt?
I am trying to send a file to a printer for a banner for a client.They only accept a pdf or jpeg at 100% scale at minimum 150dpi resolution.
I banner is over 12 metres long (12,935mm X 1100mm) and only contains vector items.
I am using corel draw x5 and have installed service pack 3. And it won't let me do either.
The largest jpeg corel will let me export at 150 dpi is 5080mm long. Any way to export larger jpeg?
When i export to pdf the resulting pdf is just blank! When I import the pdf back into corel, it imports back into corel perfectly and there doesn't seem to any issues (even tho the pdf is blank). however when I sent the file to the printer, they said it was blank as well. I read some forums that said pdfs have a limit of around 5metres, which explains the pdf issue. Even though the printer told they print pdfs larger than 5 metres all the time.
Possible to control (i.e.: set up & check the current value) the drawing scale directly from the command bars, without having to get deep into the Options menu (which is really unpractical and slow).
Actually there is a "Drawing scale" icon, but it allows to choose only among a limited selection of values: if the required drawing scale is outside this range (which happens quite often in my job), there is no alternative from the Options way.Moreover, if the scale is not included into the above-mentioned selection of values, the icon will not show the set scale value, but only a totally useless "Custom" string.
Listing on ebay some clocks i do, looking at the latest requirements. They want a jpg image 1600 pixels on the longest size, ok its big but fair enough.
They also want it to be 90 on the 0-99 JPEG quality scale. Someone has shown me that scale in Ifranview but where do i find it in Corel Draw X4 blowed if i can find it, I don't really want to add another program just to sort this out, i am confident Corel Draw X4 can do it.
