Printing with microspot

[alan 0]

I've just tried a demo of microspot on my G4 400 printing to a Clacomp AO printer but the only output resolution seems to be 72 dpi. I've changed all the preferences I can find and it says it in the chooser config that it should be printing at 300 dpi. Does anyone know how to get a pict to print at more than 72 dpi?

Could it be that the demo is limited to 72 dpi?

its not that. After further investigation it appears to have some trouble dealing with the patterns used in vectorworks. What I thought was a reduction in print quality subsequently turned out to be some wierd version of my selected pattern. I have yet to see if this can be resolved with dithering variations.

Dan, Alan,

If you are talking about the fill patterns assigned through the attributes palette, those have always been 72 dpi, regardless of scale or printer resolution. I've often wished for a more powerful and sophisticated fill capability.
