doug shaffer Posted March 22, 2000 Share Posted March 22, 2000 Hi - I apologize in advance for posting this message to this site, but considering that making .pdf files is one of the only ways to get plots using VW, I feel justified. My plotting service bureau is having a hard time with .pdf files. They use an Oce 9800 plotter and a DEMO version of a driver that allows them to process Acrobat 3.0 files. They say that a full (licensed) version would cost $3000 US. Does anyone know of particular drivers for the 9800 that work well with Acrobat 4.0 files? I am using Adobe Acrobat (Distiller) 4.0 to create .pdf files. Does anybody out there send .pdf files to an Oce 9800 plotter with good results? If so, would you be willing to share your Distiller settings? I am having difficulty with inconsistant line weights. They seem to vary depending not only on the orientation of the line (i.e. vertical vs. horizontal vs. diagonal) but there is also variation between parallel lines. In this case, it seems that the plotter is not 'registering' well with the Acrobat file. frustrated, ------------------ d. s h a f f e r a r c h i t e c t k c m o u s a Quote Link to comment
