Printing Drawings without "Fat" Lines or Text
Printing Drawings without "Fat" Lines or Text
(OP)
I am using Microstation for the first time to view drawings that exist now. I want to print these files onto 11x17" paper and have the "fat" or thick weight lines and text revert to a lower weight so that I can read it when printed. Is there a procedure that you know of to accomplish this without modifying the original drawing?
Thanks in advance,
Thanks in advance,

Breaks,
Do you know where I can download drivers for these "half-size" for HP Laserjet 5/5M or Tektronix Color Phaser 350 printers? The plotter drivers on my machine do not have half size (hs) drivers.
Thanks again

I actually don't - the Microstation version loaded on my machine already had the drivers I needed (for an HP plotter, a QMS, and a Laserjet 4050 printer). I suspect the tech guy who loaded it might have added these. If you have plot drivers for other Laserjet models, they will usually work just fine for your 5050 or whatever you have. Try looking on the Bentley site (or calling them) or the printer manufacturer's site.
Good luck, I'll keep my eyes out for ya.
