Border printing problems

[Anonymous]

I've got a problem with plotmaker chopping off part of my border, when I print the layout it doesnt print the bottom or left hand border, I thought it was a simple problem wit hmargins, but even if I scale it down to say 50% so the lines would obviously be in the printing area, they still don't show up. I've tried redrawing the lines, printing to a different printer.. but nothing works.. any ideas?

cheers,
Daniel

I offset all my borders 1mm inside the blue PM border in the Master. Never have this problem. Previously if drawn border lines were directly on this blue line they sometimes printed half width, sometimes were o.k.

Even if you scale down to 50% it will still only print what is between the blue lines.

Stuart,

Thanks for the reply, I actually ended up figuring this out myself, it's wierd though, because all my previous layouts the border was drawn directly on top of the blue lines, and they worked.

cheers,

Thinking about this some more, the print option "use margins of master layout" or "margins of device" would have an effect too, and could be the cause of the inconsistency.
