Plot preview

Im using autocad LT 2004, when i look at my plot preview everything looks fine but when i plot the result is not what was on the preview (the printable area is reduce). Can someone tell me who to resolve this problem?

RE: Plot preview

A couple of questions:  Are you plotting in model or paper space?  What plot setting are you using?  My initial quess would be you are previewing the drawing area without telling Autocad what printer setting are you using.  Another possilibity is that one or more Autodesk plot DLL's are corrupted.  I would need more information to find what is wrong - John.

RE: Plot preview

This seems very similar to the problem I have ,(Acad 2000 on Win XP Pro)
The preview shows everything is OK then when I print A2 size I only get an A3 portion of the plot.
I would love to hear the fix for this one.
