I have a couple of stations that occasionally print bad plots and I can't figure out why.

Basically, several entities will be either shifted or missing on the plot. I thought it might be the cable connecting the switch to the network for these computers but that wasn't it. Actually, it only happens when plotting from Hurricane. Strange. It plots fine when I manually plot the dwg on the command line using the same defaults the script used.

I'm stumped... Has anyone run into this before?

Hi Miksteele,

I've been racking my memory, because I thought I had seen this happen once before. BUT it was consistant. Every time the drawing was plotted, it was the same corruption.

I can't remember how we finally fixed it (if at all).

Does it happen on the same drawings randomly, or random drawings randomly?

Try placing a DELAY in the script.

Try putting some other functions like ZOOM E, and REGEN to get the database to refresh, THEN plot, all in one shot... (I'm just guessing at this point though...)

Try converting the drawings to an OLDER version of DWG, then back to the newer version... that often fixes all sorts of mysterious gremlins...

Hope that something helps!

Regards,
Bill
