Plotter problems AutoCAD 2010

[lostincad]

Hi guys. I'm new here

 

to cut a long story short i'm having problems with the plotter in AutoCAD 2010.

i made a new plotter using the plotter wizard like i did previously using the older version of CAD.

 

so anyway i wanted to plot the files so i could open them in photoshop. however the files are saving as DWF files and i need them to save as .EPS files as they won't open in photoshop. i keep getting errors. please PLEASE PLEASE help me! as i have a job interview next week and i need my portfolio completed.

 

Many thanks

Extended Post-Scrip files are only acceptable in Photoshop, so that they too can write back to the very same printer/plotter after corrections are done. Makes a difference as to exactly what printer/plotter you are using, for not all of them have the PS capability.

wanted to thank you again Cad64. I have set up my plotter and it is in perfect working order. i have realised what the problem was. I kept forgetting to choose the 'plot to file' option what a silly mistake to make! that's what happenes when we get ourselves worked up. So thank you for your help and god bless.
