Splines in drawings

Splines in drawings

Splines in drawings

(OP)
Why are the splines that i draw in drawings coming out as jagged lines when i print?  They look fine in my drawing view, during print and print preview they are jagged and look horrible.  Thanks for any help on this.

RE: Splines in drawings

(OP)
All printer settings are set on high quality.  I've gone through them all.  I've played with it some more and it turns out that when i draw the spline in the part view it comes out jagged, when i draw it in the main drawing view it turns out fine.  I would prefer to draw the spline in the part view so that it moves with the part.

RE: Splines in drawings

What happens if you draw the spline in a sketch within the part?  Then show the spline sketch.  It will move with the part view in the drawing file.
