Line Weight not showing up when printing in Model Space.

[JBullseye74]

Alright people,

Just a quick one for you, What setting have i changed?
When i print a sketch from Model space my line weights don't show up, in fact all the line weights look very faint, however if i go into paperspace and print through a viewport the line weights print correctly.

This has only started happening recently so i have obviously changed a setting without realising it. This is very annoying as you can imagine.!!

Please someone save my computer from any more verbal abuse, my work collegue thinks i have torrets. :-)

I've had this happen before and it was only a matter of having to change my plot style table when I went to print. Just makes sure that it's set to the right table. When you're in paperspace it automatically selects the table that you set that layout up for. If you're in model space it doesn't recognize those settings.

Hi mike...yeah i already checked that im plotting with the same pen settings as i do in paperspace and the settings all seem the same.

Hmm im stumped... has it got something to do with shademode.?

The only other thing that I can see that might be your problem is (if you're using ACAD 2k6) under plot options ensure that "Plot with plot styles" is checked and make sure that scale lightweights isn't checked....other than that I don't know what to tell you!
