AC8.1 -> PM9 = No Anno Fills

Anonymous

We have an AC3.1 model linked to a PM9 layout book. All the label arrow heads, section arrows, and elevation dimension symbols are printing hollow. Is there a switch for this, or is this a problem between AC8.1 and PM9?

AC 3.1 or 8.1 ?!?!?!

i take it that fills generally are printing fine? if not, and you're using 8.1, check the display options of the saved views . . . there is a setting to globally alter the fill display.

otherwise, check your pen settings? are you using a unique pen for these items whose colour has been over-ridden and set to white or something similar in plotmaker?

last thought: are the elements that aren't printing solely components of library parts?

All fills print just fine.

No special pens. The layouts look great on screen, put they print wrong.

It's only label arrows, section markers, elevation dimensions, etc.. All other objects (ie chairs, toilets,...) print correctly.

Still looking?
