my page outline is hidden behind layers

[ArchiveDS]

is there anyway to bring it to the font so i can see it? i use 'one page' for set print area.

[Jonathan Pickup]

are you using sheet layer with viewports?

[ArchiveDS]

no, just a drawing layer. i set page set up size to Arch D and i have always been able to see the page outline when i need to print but now its hiden behind a layer that is opaque. i though there was a way to 'bring the page boundry to the front'...but i cant remember

How do you know it is behind a layer if you cannot see it? Perhaps it is something else. As far as I know you cannot bring the page boundry to the front, and opaque objects will obscure it.

Do you have the reference grid turned on (Tools/Set Grid.../Show Grid Lines)? Can you see the grid?

If you select the Move Page Tool and click on the drawing, do you see the "X" marking the location of the page?

If you "Select All" and "Fit To Objects", is there perhaps a large object covering the page boundry? You might have to do this for each layer of a different scale with layer options set to modify others.

Also make sure the page boundary border hasn't been turned off.

Go to File>Print and make sure "Show Page Boundary" is checkmarked.

Wow, that sounds like the more likely cause. I didn't even remember you could do that.

But the "Show Page Boundry" checkbox is actually in "Page Setup" for v. 12 or "Set Print Area" in v. 11.

Thanks for the catch Peter!
