Problems Plotting Gradient Fill and % fill

Anonymous — Thu, 06 Mar 2008 10:07:59 GMT

Anyone please help, I have a deadline to get these planning drawings in. I have used both the above fills, on the plans and elevations. When I print to our A3 printer the fills come out fine but when I print to our Plotter the gradient fill changes from green/black to magenta/black and the % fill turns solid?
Any answers ideas would be great, we have just upgraded to Archicad 11 from 8.1 and love the new fills, but need them to plot at A1.
Cheers,
Andy

don't know what causes it but print/save your drawings to pdf and send those to print/plot... that should work.
