TOOLS/OPTIONS/IMAGE QUALITY/BEEN THERE
(OP)
I was looking at our prints. It seems as though our printer
prints out angles and radii as jagged segments. Kind of like the graphics on an old school Atari game for example. I upgraded to an Nvida video card. I think It was the 4500 or 4600 card. I just recently increased the image quality close to the red zone under the tools option documents for my drawings.
As I zoom in the angles are still looking a little jagged but yet our printer still gives me horrible results.
I’m going to try and print from a laser jet to see if this is more of a printer issue than a graphics issue but I still doubt that. I’m using 4 gigs and still we have some issues with printing clarity (hp office jet pro K850). Some geometry lines on the drawing seem to widen in the graphics area. As though two lines are over laying on a verticle face. Any suggestions to the three immediate issues I am having? Attach is the .pdf file. Please not the vertical
lines that are thicker. Also my operating system is windows 2000 32 bit.

I think this will do the trick. Any other suggestions...

Also when you print, try to force the "HIGH QUALITY" under the page setup.
I have also seen this when the drawing view is still being loaded. Make sure there is not a hour-glass in the drawing view icon in the feature manager.

FYI, Win 2000 is no longer supported for SW 2007 & 2008.
