Print Screening

(OP)
For some unknown reason when I plot a map form my computer with the appropriate linetypes I get a incorrectly screened map, whereas if I use an associates computer to plot the same map (with the same settings as near as I can tell) the map comes out right.  Does anyone know of a setting that could cause this?

Thanks

RE: Print Screening

Check your associates DIMSTYLE setting when plotting.

Thanks for the response.

I should have mentioned that I am using Land Desktop 2005.  I don't see a DIMSTYLE setting - where can I find it?

DIMSTYLE sounds like it may pretain to dimensions -  what does it do?

RE: Print Screening

My mistake. I meant PLOTSTYLE. If it is like AutoCAD, you expand the plot dialog with an arrow at the lower right.

Turns out I was using an old driver.  The IT guy got it squared away for me.

Thanks for the efforts.
