    Part of Drawing Not Printing

    DraftSight printing

    nnbk: Thanks for response. I am not sure what you're after. All I do when exporting to pdf I have markers at the four corners of my drawing sheet and reduce my drawing to leave a certain border (required by USPTO). That way I prevent pdf to extend the drawing by preserving a border or frame.

    Draftsight / Printing - ACad publish option

    I do a lot of patent drawings and with my updated draftsight can only print in grey scale that is unacceptable for patent compliance (see previous post). I have tried every setting imaginable - to no avail. I now go back to my old DWG Editor or Solidworks drawing to get a decent print image...

    DraftSight printing

    After I updated DraftSight all the print images are in light grey lines. I tried everything possible (including toner save mode). This was never a problem with the previous version. Anybody would be able to help me?
